A mass that can be sung in any key,
a jaunty round semi-improvised on the spot,
an epic psalm in surround sound and a passionate motet with harmonies two centuries ahead of its time!
 
Join Macquarie Singers in a tribute to the pioneering spirit of those composers who thought outside the box as we explore their thrilling music from the Renaissance to the 20th Century.

MUS was established in 1967 at Macquarie University as a choir for students & staff, and members of the community around the University. In July 2017, the choir became an incorporated association known as Macquarie Singers Inc, still to be known affectionately as MUS.

We generally perform two major concerts per year and also appear at special events such as singing Christmas Carols at a local Hospital and aged care sentres, the  Carols on the Common and the North Ryde RSL club. More info? Click here…
