Now into its 47th year of music making, VicWelsh is a traditional Welsh male voice choir, singing in four-part harmony and presenting about fifteen concerts a year mainly in Victoria. The choir is based in Blackburn South but has thriving Bendigo and Ballarat chapters. Over the years there have been many tours to Wales and England, and to New Zealand as well as interstate. We made a sold-out joint tour of Sri Lanka in July 2025 with our Musical Director’s Sri Lankan choir Euphony. Both choirs performed at Galle, Kandy and twice in Colombo, to great acclaim.
Apart from the annual St David’s Day concert, the choir also stages other major concerts with stars like David Hobson, Marina Prior and Silvie Paladino.
The choir has sung at highly prestigious venues like the Melbourne Recital Centre, Ulumbarra Theatre, Sydney Opera House and Docklands Stadium during the Rugby World Cup, but most concerts are in cathedrals, churches, performing arts centres and town halls.
Performing hymns, ballads, show tunes, arias and Celtic favourites that raise the roof in chapels and concert halls from Bangor to Bairnsdale, the choir is well known for its
professionalism, humour and entertaining engagement with audiences young and old alike.
As one of our hirers said, “They really put on a show.”
