Our History:
The East Fife Male Voice Choir was formed in 1957 in the Wemyss area of Fife, with a backing of the coal Industry Social Welfare Organisation. It was a great outlet for the Miners and others who joined, being able to sing and socialise with like-minded men as and still is today a great pastime.
In 2007/08 the choir celebrated its 50th Anniversary and was honoured with a Civic Reception in the Town House, Kirkcaldy.

Our Legacy:
Today the choir has about 50 voices and we sing in four part harmony,(1st Tenor; 2nd Tenor; Baritone and Bass). Rehearsals are held on Monday evenings at Pathhead Parish Church from September until December then January until May, with members coming from all parts of Fife. We specialise in giving concerts of around two hours duration to audiences at home and abroad. The choir has undertaken tours to Germany, Italy and has visited venues in England and Wales. We also welcome other choirs visiting from other areas of Britain and abroad and often undertake joint concerts with these choirs.

Our Audience:
We entertain in churches, theatres, concert halls etc. We can also consider performing at conventions, conferences, dinners and any other fund raising events.
