Battle of the Choirs

 Thought you knew what to expect from a choir? Think again.

Doing for choral singers what Dancing With The Stars did for ballroom dancers, Seven’s brand new singing competition, Battle Of The Choirs, will flip the script on one of the nation’s favourite pastimes.

Battle Of The Choirs will showcase 16 choral groups from around Australia. Gospel, barbershop, classical, pop, acappella, jazz, soul – all genres are represented, but it's personality, passion, power and performance that they'll need to make it past the judges when they’re challenged to perform songs from the likes of Kylie Minogue, Meatloaf, Rhianna, Kiss, AC/DC, Scissor Sisters, Stevie Wonder and more.

David Koch will present the search for Australia’s top choir. The winning choir will be awarded $100,000.

Congratulations to The University of Newcastle Chamber Choir, winners of the 1st series of Battle of the Choirs
