“I would like to thank the With One Voice choir for singing at our Australia Day Citizenship Ceremony this year.  Their energy was infectious and their voices encouraged everyone else to sing with equal enthusiasm.
I can honestly say their music of many cultures in the most diverse city in Australia made everyone smile!” Mayor Roz Blades AM, City of Greater Dandenong Jan 2019

“The choir brought an element of absolute pure joy and enjoyment to the event. The songs they chose to sing were perfect and you really felt like you wanted to join in and sing along with them. Part of our message on the day was about doing things in life that connect you to other people, tap into your creative side and also to find something you are passionate about doing – the choir encapsulated all of this and everyone felt uplifted and inspired. The thing I loved the most was the kazoo that was used in the most opportune places and everyone loved it and had a laugh. I had numerous people say how much they enjoyed the performance and also interest in With One Voice as a concept.” Nic Linford, White Lady Funerals July 2019

WOV Greater Dandenong 2020/21

Even though 2020 was a steep mountain to climb, in so many ways it was a wonderful
opportunity to experience music in new and unusual ways and learn more about each other
in the process.

Despite not being able to gather in rooms and share singing, supper and a cuppa we
gathered online via the magic of the WOV Facebook Livestream and the singers of Greater
Dandenong became the crooners of their respective lounges and Zoom rooms. We learned
how to chat online, made copious newsletters – sharing online events, photos and our
favourite Youtube videos and kept in touch with less tech-enabled members by good
old telephone calls and real live voice chat! We shared what we were having for dinner,
favourite recipes, tales of lockdown walks and craft projects, bad jokes, good company, a
lot of laughter and a few tears.

Importantly, we stayed connected and safe so that as soon as we were able to meet in
a room again we could. Very special thanks to Sue and Mandy, our dedicated volunteers
who coached many nervous singers through their first online adventures and made, mmm…
roughly a gazillion phone calls between them!
