Community in Action

In the midst of a chilly winter, we're looking forward - as you do! - to Spring ...and that brings us to our annual Fundraiser .....The Voice of Spring

Once a year our choruses combine for an event to raise funds for a local NFP or Charity.  This has become a much enjoyed event to which we look forward with enthusiasm and 2018 is no exception.

The beautiful celtic chorus Heart of Erin will be singing, along with our very funloving socialites Novapop ...and as a special treat, our guest comedy artists will be "Kitty Katz" with her fractured fairy tale sketch and song.
The afternoon is filled with song, music, games and a generous prize pool to vie for ....PLUS....a most delicious afternoon tea.
Do join us, won't you?
More information will be provided as we get closer to the event which will be:
SATURDAY 3RD NOVEMBER  -  2pm - at the St Augustines church hall in Merewether  [opposite Souths']

Taking the Plunge

This week chorus members return to their groups as we start a new year.  That means new material!  And that's always exciting.  Challenging, definitely - but exciting as well.  Most members won't have done any singing since mid-December so inevitably there'll be a little 'rust in the pipes' ...but a good first sing should clear that out.
A new year is a time when many people make new-year-resolutions ....and things they've been procrastinating on finally get to the top of the list.  So I'm never surprised now when new members tell me "oh, I've been meaning to do this for years! why did I wait so long?!".  And I love seeing the joy that singing in a group brings to existing - and new members.  But particularly new members who are experiencing for the first - or at least for a very long - time, that magic buzz that just fills you up when you've finished a singing session.
Who needs drugs when you sing out loud with like-minded folks!
So if you've been thinking about it for awhile, maybe NOW is the time to take the plunge.....you won't regret it.
