male voice choir

All-tenor-bass group

A male voice choir is a choral group composed entirely of men and boys, typically singing in tenor and bass ranges.

The tradition is especially strong in Wales, where male voice choirs emerged from mining communities and chapel culture.

The sound is characteristically rich and powerful: The male voice choir performed traditional Welsh hymns.
