Music resources

 

We maintain a huge database of musical groups and sessions all over Victoria.

Our main focus is on assisting individuals to find a creative outlet through making music with others, not necessarily in a professional context, nor even through public performance, but in the simple joy and sense of community that comes from people doing it together.

We've written extensively on why this experience is so essential to the well-being of all individuals and we are committed to the development of music making opportunities for all Victorians.

For example, if you're interested in finding a singing group of a particular style in a nearby suburb which meets at a suitable time with a membership sympathetic to your needs and interests, odds are we'll be able to point you in the right direction!

Just email us or call (03) 9662 1162 and we'll give you the contacts you need, or you can use the “Find a local singing group” link below to find a singing group near you!
