City of Truro Male Choir
United Kingdom
Приєднався 30 лип 2020
Although we only became the City of Truro Male Choir in 2003, we can trace our singing forefathers back to two local village choirs formed in the 1940s. These were Chacewater & District Male Choir and Carnon Vale Male Choir.
Over those 75+ years, the choirs have had numerous Musical Festival successes, both in and out of the County. Our main focus has always been to give high quality entertainment and pleasure to as varied an audience as possible. To achieve this our Musical Director Russell Pascoe has broadened our repertoire to embrace Classical, Pop, Folk, A Capella and Musical Theatre numbers, whilst continuing to include many of those pieces from the ‘standard’ Male music list.
We aim to be the most entertaining male voice choir in the South West and for the City of Truro to be proud of us. The ethos of the choir is to have fun and enjoy ourselves.
We are a registered charity, and our current membership is over 50 strong. The choir gives approximately a dozen concerts a year.

World as One - Our own version
The Mission of World Earth Day on 22 April 2023 is to raise awareness of the environment we all share. This is our choral contribution to the day. We originally recorded the song with five of the leading Cornish choirs and young soloists in June 2021 as a message of hope for an environmentally safer future to the G7 World Conference here in Cornwall. However, we also wanted to re-record it in the context of “Our World; Our Community and Our-selves”. This is the result

This piece was originally composed by Russell Pascoe for his boys school choir 'The Cousin Jacks '. Having resurrected it for Truro's Male Choir, we are here 'performing' it in the Royal Cornwall Museum in December 2019 at a celebration concert for the Hall for Cornwall. We were led by choir member Alex Price, who had also been a 'Cousin Jack' at school and performed it then.

Great work all, congratulations! Please do have a go at these and most importantly help others to do them too - so many do not know what to do to help. The next ten years will be so exciting, massive change, lots of mistakes too, but we can help by shaping all the new habits, markets and pathways by doing these ourselves now.

A beautiful arrangement and setting, thank you.
Thank you . We are very fortunate in having Russell Pascoe as our MD. He is an intranational composer in his own right
Very good, but why were the sheep, cows and dogs there? I remember frogs singing, and cats, and a fish, and I think an owl too maybe!? can't remember any cows, sheep or dogs?
Thank you. Call it creative licence. It's what our arranger wrote for us. I suspect he thought we would not make very good fish sounds !!

Well done chaps for keeping going through such a difficult time. Really enjoyed your performance :)
Thanks. Trust you are doing something too
I think Paul McCartney would love this--a fine rendition of one of his most melodious and gentle anthems, with extra animals, to suit his vegetarian activism. Even if he doesn't like it, I think it's great.
