Hart Male Voice Choir was formed in May 1975 with the aims and objectives to develop choral singing to provide entertainment for performers and audiences.
For over 40 years Odiham based Hart mvc has offered the opportunity for men who enjoy music to share their pleasure by singing together. In that time Hart has become one of the most popular choirs in Hampshire.
The choir currently has 65 members who perform songs from a varied repertoire with traditional male voice choir songs as well as songs from the shows, operatic pieces, folk songs and classic hymns. Solo singing is encouraged as part of the development of individual voices and to inspire confidence in overall singing performance.
Choir tours in response to invitations have included visits to Germany, France, Spain, Holland, Portugal, South Africa and Ireland and have all been acclaimed with standing ovations and invitations to return.
