• So you think you can sing?!
    Even if you’re not sure, you’ll find a warm welcome at the Toowoomba Philharmonic Society. Founded in 1903, the Society is older than the city of Toowoomba and prides itself on its contribution to the community over the past 110 years.

    As a community choir, the Society encourages people of all ages and abilities with a love of singing to participate. New members are welcome to join the adult Philharmonic Choir, or the recently formed youth ensemble, the Philharmonic Voices. “What I love about the choir is that everyone is there to enjoy themselves,” said new member, Leanne Midgley. “You don’t feel as though you need to be the world’s best singer to join.”

    The choirs perform regularly throughout the year, presenting concerts, musicals, theatre restaurants and sacred works. The Society is also proud to support Toowoomba’s annual Carnival of Flowers, Christmas Wonderland and Christmas Tree Festival.
    Highlights in 2015 included the #LoveOpera gala held at the Armitage Centre and “Cinemagic”, a musical journey through the great cinema hits of the ages.

    Amongst other things, this year the Society will be presenting a Celtic concert, hosting a Mama Mia movie sing-a-long, and staging the hit rock ‘n roll musical, “GREASE” at the Empire Theatre.

    If you’re interested in joining the Society, or simply finding out more, come along to the free Welcome BBQ at 6:30pm on Wednesday 27 January at the Philharmonic Complex, 7 Matthews St, Toowoomba.
