Youth choir keen to expand

Geelong Youth Choir is inviting new members to sign up in 2025.

Whether you’re an experienced vocalist or your child is eager to learn and grow, Geelong Youth Choir Director of Music Phillipa McQuinn said the choir welcomes all singers to become a part of their musical family.

“We are welcoming singers to all our choirs in 2025,” she said.

“We are particularly looking for primary school children of all ages to join our junior choirs, where they can develop their singing skills in a supportive

environment.

“Cantore Choir, our advanced choir for young people, had a fantastic year in 2024, winning the Junior Choir prize at the Robert Burns Choir Festival in Camperdown. We are looking forward to welcoming new singers to this choir, as they prepare for some exciting concerts and collaboration events as part of the Geelong music community.”

Ms McQuinn said the preschool program, Let’s Make Music, is designed especially for little ones aged one to four, providing an engaging, hands-on musical experience.

“This class gives preschoolers an opportunity to explore rhythm, melody and movement in a fun and supportive environment,” she said.

“The parents and carers, who participate in the class, love spending quality time with their little ones, helping the children master musical skills and creating beautiful memories.”

Geelong Youth Choir is looking for singers of all ages and voice parts (soprano, alto, tenor, bass) who have a passion for music and a desire to perform. Previous choral experience is an asset but not required – all enthusiastic and dedicated singers are encouraged.
