Our Diva's have returned!
This year's Chorus Oz experience was as much a blast as last year's, even though singing Missa Solemnis was at a level of difficulty none of us would like to repeat! It remains one of the most exhilarating singing performances one can even experience and is to be recommended to anyone who was hesitant this year. Next year's performance will be the Bizet's opera Carmen and will once again be held on the Queen's Birthday long weekend, so pencil it in your diaries!
