Project 90
Ninety years of memories, music and friendship — told by the people who make up the Choir.
90 years. 90 seconds.
Project 90 celebrates the memories and impact of members of Welwyn Garden City Male Voice Choir through a series of 90-second stories — one second for every year of the Choir's existence.
The stories give members an opportunity to share their experiences of singing with the Choir, memorable performances, friendships and what being part of WGCMVC has meant to them.
Together they form a personal record of the people behind more than nine decades of music in Welwyn Garden City.

Part of a much bigger story
Project 90 forms part of the celebrations marking ninety years since Welwyn Garden City Male Voice Choir was founded in 1935.
From its Welsh roots through wartime, BBC broadcasts, performances at major concert halls and generations of new singers, the Choir continues to evolve while retaining the traditions and friendships on which it was founded.
