CELEBRATION SING OUT ! 2017 CONCERT THIS WEEKEND
FINAL REHEARSALS AT SECRET LOCATIONS ACROSS SYDNEY

The heartwarming and exalting sounds of hundreds of singers and orchestral musicians ranging out on Sunday night the 29th of October, as they "lifted the roof" at the Sydney Town Hall.
The reason for the concert is two-fold: to give children, youth and adults the opportunity to sing great and enjoyable music together, accompanied by a symphony orchestra and the Sydney Town Hall Organ, and to raise much needed funds for Music Therapy at the children's hospital at Westmead.

Dear Members and Friends, 

I invite you to be a supporter or member of the Collegiate of Specialist Music Educators (CSME) and contribute to our important missions:
  1. 1. Strong advocacy for a quality music education for all children.
    Music education, particularly in our government primary schools, is either delivered poorly or not at all.
  2. CSME, given the vast experience and  music education expertise of its membership, has valuable credibility to bring to discussion and advocacy for effective music education.

    2. Celebration Sing Out!
    Held annually in Sydney Town Hall, the concert brings together hundreds of primary and secondary singers, as well as adult singers from community choirs: Over 800 took part in 2016. Together they sang great choral repertoire.

    Over the past 24 years the concert has raised $400,000 for various children's medical causes. In the past five years over $80,000 has been raised for Music Therapy at The Children's Hospital at Westmead.  

    Celebration Sing Out! continues the tradition of offering a unique musical and personal opportunity to school students and adults. 

    Check out the wonderful 2017 program here!
    And of course, we aim to raise as much money as we can for the Music Therapy Unit at the children's hospital at Westmead.
    Please help raise much needed funds for this vital contribution towards the health and wellbeing of children in hospital at Westmead!
