GOOD NEWS: SWGC is back rehearsing at the Uniting Church Hall! Be assured that we are following COVID safe protocols. Rehearsals will still be available to do from home on Zoom. Rehearsal time is 7 to 8.30pm with no tea break.
If you want to try out the choir, please email Alison at membership@strangeweather.org first. Initially, you will be able to join us on Zoom.
Strange Weather Gospel Choir is an auditioned Canberra community choir of around 50 singers whose repertoire includes gospel and spiritual songs as well as African, Indigenous, folk and contemporary pieces. It is not a religious choir and members are from all walks of life. We are united by our love of singing together in a supportive environment. As a performance choir, SWGC entertains at a variety of events and festivals in Canberra and the region.
Visit three rehearsals for free anytime to see what we are like. If you decide to join the choir, you will have a simple audition with the Musical Director. Contact our membership officer Alison directly at membership@strangeweather.org for more information. The ability to read music or prior singing experience is not required.
