Rehearsal Reminder

This Tuesday 19th August is a rehearsal – usual time 6.45pm for 7pm start.

Lots of fun last Sunday at Drayton Villas.  The audience were very generous with their praise and donations. Very grateful for their support.

* Don’t forget to register for All Together Now at Stanthorpe

* check emails for the link to new music which we will start working on at our next rehearsal.

Great singing opportunity from Jonathon Welch.

I hope this finds you all well and enjoying your singing on these chilly Winter nights.
I thought I’d just email you to let you know (if you haven’t heard already) that I’lm running a series of rehearsals starting this Sat July 19, 2025 from 10am – 5pm at Choral House (Toowoomba Choral Society’s rehearsal venue) 
for our forthcoming concert at the magnificent QPAC Concert Hall on Sun Nov 9, 2025 entitled:
The Greatest Show Choir!

You guessed it – the repertoire is Broadway musicals 🙂

The rehearsals are also an opportunity for PD as a lot of my work is focused on vocal technique – no matter what the repertoire is.

This project is a collaboration with QPAC and my arts charity – Play It Forward, to help support music making and choral singing in regional areas of Qld with the opportunity to perform in our premiere performance space in Brisbane (it’s nowhere as beautiful as your Empire Theatre – I confess).

I be grateful if you would be able to help spread the word amongst the wonderful Darling Downs community – here’s a link with all the details for those who are interested:

Many thanks for your time – I really appreciate your support and wish you all the best with your own joyful singing!
