A Chorus Lion
St Kilda Road, Melbourne, Vic
As a community choir A Chorus Lion is open to all people interested in singing together, so is not auditioned. There are currently approximately 45 regular members, although on any given night it is rare to have more than 30 attendees. The age range is from mid 40s to 90s with many in their 60s.
Within the choir there is a range of musical knowledge and singing experience, with some having a good grasp of musical theory and others unable to read music.
The choir sings material from many different genres: classical, musicals, popular, folk, religious and world music. The repertoire is usually 3-4 parts SATB, mostly with piano accompaniment but occasionally a cappella.
The choir performs at Wesley College events as well as for the broader community, particularly aged care.
A Chorus Lion rehearses weekly on Wednesday evenings during Wesley College school terms from 7.45 pm to 9.15 pm at Wesley College St Kilda Road Campus in the music school in a dedicated performance centre (The Stilwell Recital Centre).
