Donations to the Oriana Chorale Cultural Fund help the Chorale to continue to bring you interesting, innovative programs of the finest choral music – as witness the following instances: 

  • In 2020, a visionary donor devised and helped to fund Two Worlds, our contribution to reconciliation on the 250th anniversary of the arrival of Captain Cook (postponed till 2021)
  • In 2015, we presented a new work by resident composer Calvin Bowman commissioned by a beloved Life Member of The Oriana Chorale
  • 2009, a generous sponsor supported our Venetian Christmas concerts, enabling us to put on a special concert of Monteverdi, Gabrielli, Schütz and Vivaldi
  • 2008, a sponsor supported our initiative to commission some new Australian songs appropriate for Australian Christmas. Using some classic poetry by James McAuley, Pat Edwards and new verse by Michael Leunig, composers Matthew Orlovich and Calvin Bowman put their considerable talents to new and enjoyable music. The Oriana Chorale launched the resultant new ‘carols’ at the National Museum of Australia on 21 December 2008 to considerable acclaim

We welcome corporate sponsorship of our outstanding musical director Dan Walker, as he coaches, encourages, inspires and leads in performance.
