25.01.2022 It's pretty tough here in Victoria right now. But this song by the The Royal Melbourne Hospital scrubs choir might just give you a lift Big thanks to all the front line folk and those who support them #westandbyyou
20.01.2022 Zoom rehearsals have kicked off a whole new round of choir traditions - a poem or story to open, a 'herstory' trip down memory lane with photos from the archives ... and singing our way out with Keep you in Peace, as you see here. We are *bursting* to return to rehearsal but in the meantime this is keeping the cobalt light shining ....
19.01.2022 We're so glad to be able to support the important work of Murujuga Aboriginal Corporation through our recent fundraiser. Thanks to all members and supporters who joined us for the very successful Reconcilliation week film night.

18.01.2022 From our friends at Just Holler choir: The Big Cosy Choir event is going virtual! We’ll be teaming up with our friends at Brunswick Rogues and Beyond The Bathroom to learn an original by Nicki and Craig from All The Way Home taught through Zoom sectionals by myself and the other leaders in the same room/zoom so that you can hear all the harmonies live! We’ll be raising $$$ for Pay The Rent. Everyone’s welcome to join, past present and non choir members :)

08.01.2022 During tonight's Zoom rehearsal several women presented songs in honour of Reconciliation Week: The Irex from the Mission Songs Project Inside my Kitchen by Lou Bennet Wakaniniyana, also by Lou during a collaboration with the choir in 2001 And the classic, From Little Things Big Things Grow... #InThisTogether https://youtu.be/etx2_lTnFtk
07.01.2022 Ella's Song by Sweet Honey in the Rock was inspired by the words of Ella Baker: "Until the killing of black men, black mothers' sons; Is as important as the killing of white men, white mothers' sons" A powerful choice to close our rehearsal tonight. Because we who believe in freedom cannot rest until it comes. #blacklivesmatter... https://youtu.be/U6Uus--gFrc

Just because. #staysafe
01.01.2022 Last week we welcomed a new bubba into the choir family. So tonight we learned and sang a Japanese lullaby for her. Welcome, little girl and future member Sleepy Baby Sleepy baby, oh little girl... May you sleep so well Many stories, pretty baby All your dreams will tell. What presents, oh little girl Will they leave for you? Den den drum for little baby A flute of bamboo.
