ATC Senior Singers also enjoy a busy performance schedule including the Queensland Youth Music Awards, Queensland Catholic Colleges Music Festival, ATC Formal Music Concert and the annual Choral Concert.

Bunbury Men of Song began in a very small way in 1998. 

Since that time through the talents of its Musical Directors and Accompanists and the dedication and hard work of its members, the choir has grown to have over 30 members, and is enjoying success and acclaim in its performances in Western Australian and across the rest of our nation. The choir has performed at Pemulwuy the triennial National Male Voice Festival in Brisbane on many occasions and has toured across Queensland, around Tasmania and performed at the Hobart Festival of Voice. In 2016 we participated in the Pusteria Valley International Choral Festival in Italy and then toured across the Western Front performing including singing with the Prague Male Voice Choir and in a solo concert in Paris. 

In 2020 Bunbury Men of Song were the only Australian Choir to successfully audition and be accepted to compete in the International Eisteddfod in Llangollen in Wales.  Sadly COVID put an end to all these plans. 

Our members come from almost every walk of life. We have students, those seeking work, labourers and trades people, professionals, retired persons and more. Some were born in Australia, others have come to make their home here from various places around the world. Our members comment on the ready welcome that they are given, the friendship they are offered and the genuine care and support they find as members of Bunbury Men of Song. Some of our members can read music and have sung before. Others have not had that opportunity, but together under the direction of our Musical Director, Greg Ross, we learn to blend our voices. 

We sing a wide variety of music from Brand New Australian compositions to those that are well loved standards of Male Choirs and most everything in between. Singing is known for its great health benefits, in terms of breathing, lowering blood pressure and raising a sense of self worth and enjoyment. It is part of the universal tribal nature of humanity of celebrating our lives and telling ours stories and histories through song.

In 2023 about 20 of our singers are joining us as we travel to Victoria to present workshops and performances in Bairnsdale, then across to Canberra to sing at the National War Memorial and present a concert in the ACT. Then we shall be travelling to Brisbane to sing at Pemulwuy the National Male Voice Festival 7 - 9 July.

SCC Young Men's Choir captures the beauty and expressive power of the changing male voice. Most of the choristers in this ensemble have already been part of SCC as trebles and they continue their musical journey through a rich repertoire, from Vaughan Williams and Poulenc through to Billy Joel. The choir has performed Sibelius's Kulervo with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra and gave the world premiere of Elena Kats-Chernin's Meeting the Sun in 2015. The choir has twice been invited to Festival of Voices in Hobart - in 2015 and then again in 2018, combining with the Sydney Children's Choir. They have premiered a number of specially commissioned works for male voices by Alice Chance, Ella Macens and Dan Walker.
