It will be the battle of a hundred voices when two top choirs join forces for a spring concert.

The Swindon Male Voice Choir and the Wessex Male Choir will share centre stage at the MECA in Regent Street, Swindon on Saturday, March 25.

The singers will perform a wide range of popular songs from the shows, musical theatre, opera and the more traditional male voice choir classics.

Wessex Male Choir’s chairman Guy Edwards says: "We are thrilled to share the stage with one of Swindon’s longest established and much respected choirs. This will be an exciting evening of music with a few surprises and we look forward to singing some rousing joint numbers with over 100 voices – it will be a sound to stir the soul!"

Special guests will be The Cirencester Kingshill Advanced Singers, led by Jon Driver, the Head of Music at Kingshill school, and principal accompanist for the Wessex choir.
