Festival of Massed Choirs 2008
The Maestro and the Men
What a great success the first concert turned out to be. Maestro Humphreys coaxed an amazingly well-balanced sound out of the disparate choirs taking part and charmed everyone with a mixture of musicianship and humour.
The three vocal soloists were superb and lent a feeling of true professionalism--well done to all of you.
The Woden Valley Youth Choir charmed us with a really delightful set. The Hall Village Brass Band added to the spectacle with some fine playing both in their solo set and when accompanying the massed choir.
The large audience at the New Llewellyn hall were enthusiatic throughout the afternoon which lifted the performances and finally gave a great standing ovation at the end.
The next concert will be in Sydney in 2010 and the Association are hoping that a wider representation of choirs from all around Australia will participate.
The Afterglow was great fun with some really enjoyable comic turns. Well done lads.

Welcome to the Male Choirs Association of Australia (MCAA) web site. The MCAA was formed in 2007 by eleven male choirs in New South Wales and the ACT. These choirs wanted an organisation which would coordinate and organise male choral activities across Australia, arrange massed choir concerts, organise tours and to act to the mutual benefit of all member choirs. This Association will also promote social contact between member choirs through social and musical events. Are you a male choir in Australia? If so, pease contact us (see Join Us tab on the left) now and join in the fun and fellowship.
Member choirs are welcome to advertise their concerts and events on this site. Just send your information to Don Rose and it will be availble to view within 24-48 hours.
