The next musical director, Alastair McQuoid, continued the high standard with many successes, including the honour of winning the United Kingdom final of the BBC "Let the People Sing" choral competition, and going forward as the U.K. representatives to attain second place in the European finals. The Harlandic were in winning form again at the Chester Music Festival, winning not only the male voice class but also the "Oriana" Trophy as top Festival choir.

              The Choir has participated in many local and national television and radio broadcasts, appearing twice on the popular I.T.V. "Highway" series. The Choir has also performed many times on "Downtown Radio" sponsored shows at the Arts and Strand theatres. The Harlandic have also over the years worked on stage and television with a variety of celebrated stars, including Sir Harry Secombe, Stuart Burrows, Moira Anderson, our own Maureen Hegarty and Joseph Locke, and issued an L.P. of favourite Irish songs to celebrate its 40th anniversary.

              In 1997 the Harlandic Male Voice Choir had the honour of being the first choir to perform on television from Belfast's new Waterfront Hall. Television and radio broadcasts are another regular feature of the choir's life with a performance on television to mark the "launch" of the 11 Oscar winning "Titanic".

              1998 was a momentous year for Harlandic with the launch of its new CD "You'll never Walk Alone" and the choir undertook a 16-day tour of the USA and Canada, where they sang in ten concerts which included performing to a very knowledgeable audience of around 2000 fellow singers at a male chorus convention in Buffalo, NY. The tour concluded with a performance in St. Boniface's Roman Catholic Church in Scarborough, Toronto with Canada's premier group the Amadeus Choir of Toronto.

               In May 1999 after much success in local competition the Harlandic not only won their class at the Chester music festival but also defeated 22 other choirs to win the Oriana Trophy for best choir in the festival.

The Choir took part in the Larne Choirs Together Festival in March 2002, followed by the Titanic Commemoration Service (1912-2002) held in Belfast Cathedral in April 2002.
The choir took part in the Gala concert of massed Male Voice Choirs in the Ulster Hall in February 2004 and again in 2006.
The Choir's 60th Anniversary was celebrated in style in the Ulster Hall on 14th October 2004 with Glasgow Phoenix Choir, Larne Concert Choir and guest artists Dancing Fingers and Peter Corry.
