Welcome

Welcome to the website of the Manchester Amateur Choral Competition. Here you will find all the background information on the 2008 competition as well of details of how your choir can enter.

Singing in amateur choirs continues to be extraordinarily popular across the country. There are many across the north-west region alone, ranging in size from small harmony ensembles to full-scale, semi-professional choirs such as the Halle. There also exist various local music festivals in which there is occasionally a choral element.

However, with the exception of the (National) bi-annual Radio 3 Amateur Choir of the Year Competition, there are hardly any local or regional choral competitions for amateur choirs.
The Manchester Amateur Choral Competition seeks to readdress this imbalance by establishing a one-day annual competition in which choirs from across and beyond the region are invited to compete in a spirit of creativity and community.

The competition is not solely focused on the winning choir and there are no great financial rewards at stake - simply the satisfaction of having sung to a high standard and had an opportunity to experience and enjoy the diversity of performance from other amateur choirs.
