The Metropolitan Choral Honours Program brings together over one hundred students from across the region to participate in this advanced choral program.
Accepted students will be placed into 1 of 2 choirs and will also come together to sing in a massed choir. The first 2 days, students will have intensive choral workshops with guest conductors. On the final day, students rehearse at The Old Museum before they present an evening performance in the Old Museum Concert Hall.
We encourage school communities across Metropolitan region to nominate their advanced Year 6 choral students for this very special regional activity. Parents and caregivers wishing their children to become involved in this activity will need to contact their school music teacher or choir director.
