Melbourne Gay & Lesbian Chorus

Melbourne Pride Chorus (MPC), previously known as Melbourne Gay and Lesbian Chorus, was founded in Australia in 1990 by Lawrence McGuire (1966). The chorus was first named 'Alsounds', due to its part affiliation with the Foundation. In January 1995, the choir was incorporated as the Melbourne Gay and Lesbian Chorus Inc, reflecting the chorus's organizational independence and a desire to further challenge stereotypes.
