The Monties are a mixed choir based on the far South Coast of NSW. We have been singing a wide variety of music for over 25 years. We rehearse on Tuesday mornings from 9:30 – 11:30 at All Saints’ church in Bodalla and perform three or four times per year. We would be delighted to welcome new members.
We're currently rehearsing madrigals by Arcadelt, Palestrina and Dowland for a concert in early 2025. We will change over to music for the Nine Lessons and Carols in November, and return to the madrigals in the new year.
The Nine Lessons and Carols service at All Saints' Bodalla is at 7 pm on Friday December 20.
Other recent programs under Musical Director Philip Hartstein have featured sacred music by Byrd, Victoria, Lassus, Tallis, Handel, Bruckner, Schubert and Rachmaninov, part-songs by Brahms, Elgar, Mendelssohn and Holst, and folk song arrangements by Bartok, Kodaly and Grieg. We are a friendly bunch and there are no auditions. Come and sing with us!
The Montague Choristers are also committed to bringing the finest chamber music concerts to Narooma through our Visiting Artists series. The full 2024 season is here, and more details about our next concert are here.
