After my hubby of 36 years passed away, I needed something to be apart of. I found this choir and chose it because, who doesn't love belting out good songs from musicals! I also encouraged my daughter to attend and together we have found a great little community who love to sing and laugh together. Just what we needed!
My family also LOVE coming to the little performance at the end of each term. So much fun and joy in those gatherings.
Andrew, our choir director, is the best and imparts so much invaluable tips, tricks and knowledge to help us achieve beautiful results.
I love choir and am so glad that we found it just at the right time in our journey.Thankyou so much

AMTC is the best organisation I have ever come across. It is a space of total acceptance, joy, excitement, and love. I have never been part of a community of so many people, none of whom I knew when I first joined, and been made to feel so welcome from the very beginning. There is repertoire for every taste, freedom to change parts or experiment with ideas and absolutely no feelings of restriction or strictness. It is a joy to go every Tuesday night – the ultimate energy giver. And we sound amazing! It is a community I feel completely a part of and am very grateful for.

How fortunate are we to have the Australian Music Theatre Choir - a little oasis midweek away from the hustle and bustle (and our children!!) to connect, to sing, to just be. Robert makes the experience light hearted, accessible and something to be proud of. Thank you AMTC for providing such an inclusive space where friendships can truly be made.

The Australian Music Theatre Choir is nothing short of a gift. As someone who has loved musical theatre since I was a kid, being in a room filled with like-minded people singing incredible repertoire once a week brought such joy into my life. Roberts genuine love for the material and skill at coralling a large group of enthusiastic (and often rowdy!) grown up theatre kids will always impress me. My advice is don't think twice; joining AMTC is one of the best things you will ever do!

This choir is the highlight of my week. Robert is the most wonderful leader and makes it fun with no pressure, and we still get to a quality result. I laugh every week and always leave feeling high. I love it so much I go twice a week!

My decision to join the AMTC has been one of the best choices I have made and is a highlight of my week. I am a member of the Wollongong Choir & our rehearsals & end of term concerts are a wonderful mixture of learning, song, laughter & meeting new friends. Our musical director is a consummate professional who ensures we have fun as we bring to life, beautiful music theatre songs, past & present. We often surprise ourselves at what we are able to achieve. Each week, we go home on a natural high.

Joining the Australian Music Theatre Choir has been one of the best decisions I've made. This 100-strong ensemble, led by the wonderful Robert Bertram, is the highlight of my week.
The choir is incredibly welcoming and diverse. Whether you're a semi-professional or self-taught like me, you'll fit right in. Robert is a fantastic teacher – funny, instructive, and somehow gets us sounding amazing after just an hour of rehearsal. Each term we learn great songs and work towards an end-of-term concert that's always rewarding.
If you enjoy singing, come along and give it a try. You won't regret it!
