Participating choirs
COORAN COMMUNITY CHOIR & HINTERLAND HARMONIES
Cooran Community Choir and Hinterland Harmonies are joining together for this wonderful event. They are a fabulous collection of humans from all walks of life with a common goal to enjoy singing in harmony together and have as much fun as possible doing it. No experience necessary, however a sense of humour is an advantage as is a willingness to give anything (within reason) a go, even if it is a bit silly.
