A Male Voice Choir sings generally in 4-part harmony, and there is a vast collection of such arrangements, ranging from major operatic choruses through to pop ballads, as well as the stirring hymn and other arrangements associated with the Welsh Male Voice Choir tradition. Our Music Committee works hard to ensure that the Wycombe Orpheus can offer entertaining concert programmes drawing on material from this wide spectrum, and the summary below gives a good idea of our current repertoire.
