Join The Llewellyn Choir

A welcoming Canberra choir for adult singers

If you’re looking for a choir to join in Canberra, we’d love to welcome you.

The Llewellyn Choir is a friendly, auditioned adult choir that rehearses weekly and performs beautiful choral music throughout the year. Whether you’re an experienced singer or returning to music after a break, you’ll find a supportive community and inspiring musical experiences with us.

Who we're looking for

We welcome adult singers in all voice parts and of all ages who:

• enjoy singing classical and contemporary choral music
• can commit to weekly rehearsals
• are comfortable learning music between rehearsals
• want to be part of a warm, community-minded choir
• are ready to perform in concerts across the year.

You don’t need to be a professional musician – just enthusiastic, reliable, and keen to grow.

Auditions

Our auditions are friendly and supportive. They help us place you in the right voice part and ensure you’ll be comfortable with the repertoire. An audition usually includes:

• singing a short passage – usually something that we’ve already been rehearsing
• a check on your range and voice type
• a simple sight reading exercise (nothing scary!)
• a chat about your singing experience.

Most singers tell us the audition was far less intimidating than they expected.

Where to find us

From time to time we invite guest singers to join us for major works; examples in the last few years include Elijah, St Matthew Passion and Verdi's Requiem. We will advertise these opportunities when they arise. Guest singers pay a reduced membership fee just to cover the particular concert, but this can be upgraded to full membership at any time.
