The Resonants are an independent, non-profit ensemble of young professionals and university students who came together through a common love of choral music. Since forming in 1990, The Resonants have held many concerts around the Canberra region. The choir regularly presents their own concerts, as well as performing with other artists and singing as special guests at embassy receptions, exhibition openings and cultural festivals. The Resonants have successfully competed in numerous eisteddfods in Canberra and the region, including winning the ACT state final of ABC Classic FM's inaugural Choir of the Year Competition in 2006. In 2010 we celebrated 20 years of The Resonants and developed a booklet entitled '20 Years of the Resonants' outlining the journey the choir has taken. The Resonants usually rehearse in Deakin between 7.30pm and 9.30pm on Monday nights, with extra rehearsals scheduled as necessary. While rehearsals require a great deal of concentration, they are also a lot of fun.
