WHO WE ARE

Sydney Philharmonia Choirs is Australia's largest choral organisation, inspiring and delighting audiences with the joy of singing. Over our six choirs, we have over 2,000 members who are all volunteers. We are regularly engaged to perform in Australia and overseas, and are the chorus of choice for the Sydney Symphony Orchestra.

We celebrate our 100th birthday in 2020 and are proud to contribute to Sydney as an international city of music and to a global audience.

WHY WE NEED YOUR HELP

Ticket prices alone only cover part of the costs of running an arts organisation such as ours. With less than 1% of our annual revenue coming from government funding we are increasingly reliant on donations from private individuals in order to deliver and maintain the high standard of our work.

WHERE YOUR DONATION IS USED

As well as enabling Sydney Philharmonia Choirs to present world class choral music to growing audiences at the Sydney Opera House and other Sydney venues, your support will also enable us to achieve the following projects:

1. Education:

• Music education programs in Western Sydney secondary schools
• Music coaching for our 2,000 choristers

2. Commissioning of new Australian works

•  We are committed to supporting Australian composers by commissioning at least one new work every year.  As part of our centenary program, we have commissioned 12 Australian composers to write pieces for our choristers to perform during our centennial year and into the future.

3. Collaborating with others

• We will continue our collaboration with Sydney Symphony Orchestra and Sydney Youth Orchestra. 

Thank you for your kind support
