Choirs
The joy of singing in a choir is undeniable. It’s also one of the easiest and most accessible ways to become involved in community music making. The ORC offers a wide range of choral experiences, from beginner to advanced, relaxed community groups through to Symphonic ensembles. We even have choirs for kids as young as 3!
Our choirs and singers perform regularly, both here and in the community. They are also given inspiring opportunities through our connections with Musica Viva Australia, Sydney Philharmonic Choirs, and many other partner organisations.
