The Muslim Choral Ensemble (MCE), Sri Lanka, is the first ensemble of its type in South Asia, and possibly the world. We perform spiritual and devotional songs in praise of God and the Prophet Mohammed as well as Sufi songs. Our songs and recitations are performed in a series of languages including Arabic, Urdu, Hindi and English.
MCE was founded under the guidance of Ms Haadia Galely, a long established and renowned music promoter in Sri Lanka, and Artistic Director, Dr André de Quadros, Professor of Music and Chair, Department of Music Education, Boston University. The Ensemble was formed in 2017 with just four choristers, and has now grown to a twenty singers and four instrumentalists.
