Port Harmony Inc. was formed in 2010 to present professional quality choral music to the people of Port Stephens and the Hunter. The choir, which comprises men and women, has evolved to perform a wide variety of music styles including classical, musical/film, jazz/blues and contemporary. We have a professional Musical Director at the helm – Dr Chris Hawkins. Chris is a graduate of the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. Chris majored in string playing, composition and conducting. She has a Masters Degree and 2 Doctorates. We also have a talented young accompanist, Alex Hall. The choir performs two major concerts throughout the year, and also performs for other group events in the Port Stephens region.

New members are welcome to apply. No audition is required, although a trial period applies for new members. The most important attribute is to have a good sense of pitch. Some musicianship would be a definite advantage but not essential.

Rehearsals are held on Wednesdays from 5.30pm to 7.30pm in Salamander Bay.
