Welcome to The Llewellyn Choir — a Canberra community choir

The Llewellyn Choir is one of Canberra’s longest‑running and most respected community choirs. We are a friendly, auditioned adult choir that performs classical choral works as well as smaller contemporary, lesser-known, often off-beat but always interesting pieces. If you’re looking for a choir to join in Canberra, we’d love to welcome you.

We rehearse every Tuesday evening from 7.30 to 9.30pm at Yarralumla Uniting Church, and new singers are invited to enquire at any time.
