Our Story
How it all began
10ctave was founded on a single belief — that voices, when united with purpose and precision, can move people in ways no instrument can.
What began as a gathering of passionate vocalists has grown into one of Lagos' most recognised choral ensembles. We perform classical choral renditions, timeless hymns, and original vocal arrangements that captivate audiences across Nigeria and beyond.
We are classically trained, creatively curious, and deeply committed to preserving and elevating the choral tradition in West Africa.
Who We Are
More than a music group.A movement.
Every member of 10ctave brings more than a voice — they bring discipline, artistry, and a shared commitment to excellence. Together, we are something greater than any one of us alone.

The Name
What's in a name?
Ten voices. One octave. Infinite possibilities. The name 10ctave captures the mathematics of harmony — the idea that when the right voices come together, something greater than the sum of its parts is created. Every performance we give is proof of that belief.
