Recognised throughout Cornwall, as well as many parts of England and Wales, and a handful of European countries, Four Lanes Male Choir has one of the highest reputations for male voice singing. Membership currently stands at 75 with the majority attending the choirs regular concerts throughout the West of England, as well as annual contests in other parts of the country. It is not unusual to hear the choir singing somewhere in Cornwall every other week throughout the year, and at times arranging their own concerts either with a professional soloist or with one of the other male voice choirs to be found in Cornwall.

The Choir has won festivals at Blackpool, Cheltenham, Cornwall County, and Biddulph. It was 12 times winner at Camborne and credible 6th and 7th places at the Llangollen Eisteddfod. They also won the prestigious Elgar Festival at the Magnificent Worcester Cathedral on two occasions, where the chairman of the adjudicators - Sir David Willcocks - complimented the Choir on "their beautiful rich tone".

In 1983 the Choir was presented with a special audience award for the most enjoyable performance at the Sainsbury Choir Festival in the famous Royal Albert Hall, with 20 choirs competing. The Choir has been on tour to Brittany, Lorient Festival and Austria, and arranged exchange visits with Nelson Arion, Silver Ring, Bath, Tredegar and Bleanavon Choirs. In 2004 the choir celebrated its 60th Anniversary with a spectacular concert in the Hall for Cornwall in Truro, and were joined by the internationally famous bass-baritone Sir Willard White. The concert has been described as the finest male voice concert ever staged in Cornwall.

The Choir has had only three Musical Directors, the present one being a professional and highly talented local musician Alastair Taylor, who is also recognised internationally as a pianist, organist and baritone. The Choir's current accompanist - Mike Uren - has been with the choir for 32 years.

In 2007 the Choir won second place at the International Male Voice Choir Festival in Cornwall having competed against several other international choirs, and was awarded the highest number of points ever achieved by a Cornish Choir at the Festival.

Now in its 63rd year, a marked feature of Four Lanes Male Choir and its key to success, is commitment, comradeship in song and the love of singing.

The choir motto

“Sing we for Pleasure - for One and All”,
is conveyed in their choral sound with conviction and sincerity.
