City Choir Dunedin is the second oldest New Zealand choir. It has performed under various names including Scholar Cantorum and City of Dunedin Choir, before assuming its present name in 2013 when it celebrated 150 years of existence.
Our singers are of all ages and from all walks of life who share a common delight in choral singing. We aim to be a "A Choir of Note" in New Zealand and perform classics of the repertoire. We also perform major new compositions by New Zealand composers. We love to work with young, aspiring soloists and welcome opportunities to perform with other choirs, such as the Christchurch City Choir and the Auckland Choral Society.
The Choir is usually involved in four or five concerts a year. We regularly perform with the Dunedin Symphony Orchestra and occasionally with the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra.
