The Yarra Voices
Conductor: Renee Heron
Accompanist: Simon Loveless
The Yarra Voices, led by artistic director Renee Heron, offers a nurturing and enriching environment for young singers in Melbourne. The choir emphasises strong vocal technique training and the development of performance expression while integrating ear training, music reading and music literacy through the lens of the Kodály music education philosophy. Aiming to develop both the musical and personal potential of each child, the choir performs regularly at major Melbourne events and regularly collaborates with contemporary artists like The Avalanches. Currently, The Yarra Voices are in the concept stages of a contemporary dance performance with Stephanie Lake Company for Rising Festival 2025. The Yarra Voices vision is to provide quality music education and choral experiences for children, fostering a lifelong love of music.
