Choirs

Categories

Sopranos, altos, tenors and basses? A wall of voices singing as one? What could be more thrilling than the sound of one of Australia's finest choirs? Heavenly choruses, majestic oratorio, antiphons and chorales fill the air with delicious harmonies and rhythmic precision. From Bach to Bjork, from Palestrina to pop, from Beethoven to barbershop, there is almost nothing that can't be done by a top-class choir with its indefatigable conductor at the helm!
