Our rehearsals take place on Monday evenings
7pm to 9:30pm Kessington Hall Milngavie Road, Bearsden, G61 2DP |
We aim to make singing accessible to as many men as possible and we welcome male singers from all backgrounds to our choir whatever your level of musical experience. Contact us in advance or turn up at a rehearsal, we are a great bunch of lads, you'll be made very welcome!

Why join us? We aim to offer something a bit different, of interest to men, and to provide a variety not only of music genres but of activities and events not necessarily linked to singing. We know from experience that membership of a choir such as ours provides not only physical wellbeing but often, and important for those to whom it matters, additional social and mental health benefits which cannot be measured. What binds all this together is an emphasis on FUN and ENJOYMENT – we want our men to enjoy their participation, to be looking forward to every singing opportunity and to get out of the choir far more than they put into it. If it sounds appealing, then we’ll hope to see you soon!

Beginnings
|
Westerton Male Voice Choir came about because a sodden bowling green prevented members of the Westerton Bowling Club from playing, one day in 1957. Some of the thwarted members gathered round a piano in the pavilion and were so pleased with their efforts that they decided to set up a choir. They had a ready-made conductor in Jimmy Roseweir, a willing accompanist in Margaret Thrustle and a convenient rehearsal space in the Bowling Green Pavilion. An annual subscription of two & sixpence was agreed and The Westerton Male Voice Choir was formed!

Today
|
Westerton Male Voice Choir's inaugural visit to the Cornwall International Male Voice Festival in 2013 marked a significant shift in the choir's direction and over the last decade has enjoyed a huge increase in fortune and success. The choir boasts over 60 members, and regularly performs to thousands throughout the season in venues from the far North of Scotland in Elgin Town Hall to the South West of England in Truro Cathedral! In recent years WMVC have embarked on their own nationwide tours, sing in local care homes, stream their concerts live across the globe, regularly perform at festivals and continue to raise awareness and funds for their chosen charity.
