The Boîte has been supporting Choirs since the 90s, known best for the Boîte Millennium Chorus which ran from 1999-2019, Boite Singers' Festival, and Boite Schools Chorus, with our smaller choir programs the Melbourne Georgian Choir and Sonidos Del Alma, which run weekly rehearsals in the inner north.
Music helps us individually and collectively with health benefits across all ages. Below are our educational projects where you can participate and learn through music whilst having fun and being a part of a wonderful community. For both the young and young at heart, why not enjoy and participate in the associated health benefits too!
