For two decades, the Vocal Ensemble class has been a cornerstone of training and performance excellence for young artists. Under the direction of pianist Andrea Katz, the ensemble has served as a vital stepping stone for a new generation of opera and concert performers making their mark in Australia and around the world.

To mark this milestone, the program has been specially curated by the ensemble’s members. Join us for an inspiring evening featuring opera and oratorio favorites by Mozart, Beethoven, Bizet, and Offenbach, alongside the vibrant and moving Misa Criolla by Argentinian composer Ariel Ramírez .
