Australia's longest-running classical music label     
Choir of Ormond College
Artist
After listening to the Choir of Ormond College, a German critic wrote that during the concert she had felt “at the centre of the world.”

The Berlin Morganpost said 'Twenty four young singers from Melbourne showed the Germans how to sing Bach'.

'One of the most virtuosic chamber choirs in the world.' wrote Denmark's Berlingske Tidende.

Indeed since its inception in 1982 the Choir of Ormond College under the direction of Douglas Lawrence, has become the first Australian choir to receive ongoing international recognition.

Most of the singers are or have been resident in Ormond College and come from schools where music education has occupied an important part in the curriculum.

The choir rehearses twice a week, sings each Sunday evening during the university year in the college chapel and presents an annual concert series. The choir is now directed by John O'Donnell
