Choir Ensemble

One of the original ensembles formed in 1995, the Victorian State School Choir (formerly known as the JtC Singers) has almost seen and done it all. This year’s choir is lucky enough to be under the direction of one of Melbourne’s most sought-after choir directors, Jan Goodall. Jan has successfully trained and conducted many children’s choirs. An expert in the Kodaly method of music education, Jan is frequently called upon to adjudicate choir competitions and make presentations at teacher conferences.

For Shine On 2010: Victorian State School’s Spectacular, the VSS choir joined over 1000 other students to make up the massed choir section of the Victorian State Schools Spectacular. Last year also saw the choir perform at the Moonee Ponds Christmas Carols.

This year’s choir consists of primary school students who travel from all over Victoria for their weekly Saturday rehearsal.

Places are still available, so if you or someone you know enjoys singing and would like to join the Victorian State School Choir ensemble please contact the office on 9415 1700 or email jtc@edumail.vic.gov.au to arrange an audition time.
