The Manly-Warringah Choir is a community choir based on the Northern Beaches and adjacent suburbs of Sydney. We perform largely classical choral music, typically in three concerts each year, accompanied by professional instrumentalists and soloists.
Dr Carlos Alvarado, a very experienced and highly accomplished musician trained in Moscow and Stuttgart, has been our Conductor since 2003. Choir members range from professional musicians to people who cannot read music and learn it by heart. But, whatever our musical ability, we all share a passion for classical choral music.
Recent concerts include Bach’s St John Passion and Magnificat, Beethoven’s 9th Symphony (Choral), Bernstein’s Suite from West Side Story, Brahms’ A German Requiem, Haydn’s Paukenmesse and Nelson Mass, Karl Jenkins’ Stella Natalis and The Armed Man, Mozart’s Requiem, Coronation Mass and Great Mass in C Minor, Vivaldi’s Gloria and Magnificat, Pergolesi’s Magnificat and Handel’s Messiah and the Coronation Anthems.
Over the past several years, our concerts have proved increasingly popular with local audiences, with tickets selling rapidly and full houses being the norm.
There are presently vacancies in all voices. Click here for more information on how the Choir works and how to apply for membership.
