Saturday 23 November from 5pm to 6:30pm
We’ve asked you for your favourites, and then put them all together into one glorious evening of choral delights.
There’s something for everyone – the sublime polyphony of the Renaissance, the glory of Bach, the warmth of the Romantics, and the Australian composers who have made a home in our hearts. And whether it’s music from centuries past or music hot off the press, music on a grand scale or music for intimate occasions, music throbbing with passion or sparkling with humour, we can’t wait to sing it for you!
