Small charge of $5 per person, cover costs – cash only, sorry no eftpos –

We’ll sing some songs (singing some really beautiful lovely songs) – and then you all have the opportunity, if you want, to sing some sings WITH us (or, just sit & relax, and enjoy!)

Come along and listen and - if you would like to - you can even join in. We'll teach some easy songs, to give you an idea of what it would be like to sing in one of our choirs!

Come and join us - $5 (cash) at the door. Sorry, no eftpos.

Some parking may be available in school grounds, but there's always plenty on the street.

Our new Auckland Central (Owairaka) choir opens on this week: 2 May (7:15pm to 9:15pm (Tuesdays at Mt Albert Grammar)

this is our 6th All Together Now community choir - Auckland Central (Grey Lynn), Auckland Central (Owairaka) - Auckland East - Hobsonville - Tauranga - Taupo

NO AUDITIONS! - We believe that singing is a learned skill, that almost everyone can acquire with a little effort and some good teaching.

Lots of people have grown up believing that they can’t sing, because of experiences they’ve had or things that have been said to them. There are many reasons why this happens, but we have seen over and over again that with good guidance and the right environment, people can find their way into singing.

Our community choirs aim to create an environment where people aged 16+ can find support, skills and encouragement to learn to sing well. We don’t promise it will be effortless but we do promise to do everything we can to support our singers.

Our Choir Leaders are all music graduates, and are either professionals working in the choral and vocal fields, or have years of experience of singing in choirs.
