“When my child started in LCC seven years ago, I already knew she’d be joining an excellent program. We had heard the choir in concert and been impressed by their beautiful sound, impressive intonation and musical skill, confident stage presence, and great programming choices.
What we didn’t expect, however, was getting so much more: a truly inclusive community, great friendships, amazing performance opportunities, and exposure to the best of our local and national music scene. In short, a defining and transformative experience.”

SUPPORT LUMINESCENCE CHILDREN’S CHOIR
This AusArt Day, we’re raising money to support Luminescence Children’s Choir: where musically curious kids become exceptional young singers.
These young singers have performed everywhere from Parliament House to the Sydney Opera House, toured to Hobart, Melbourne, Wollongong and Sydney, and appeared at major festivals including the Canberra International Music Festival and Hobart’s Festival of Voices. They’ve sung landmark works like Britten’s Children’s Crusade; collaborated with the National Gallery of Australia and sung at Parliament House; and brought new Australian music to life.
Today, your gift today gives these young artists remarkable experiences. We’d love you to be part of their story.
Luminescence is a registered charity with the Australian Charities and Not-for-Profits Commission. All donations are tax deductible.

“As a parent, I’m incredibly grateful that Hannah was part of Luminescence Children’s Choir from its early years through Year 12. She developed her vocal skills through a wonderfully diverse repertoire—singing in different languages and celebrating both well-known works and music by Canberra composers.
It was a joy to watch her love of music grow, along with the confidence to perform solos and take part in national choir experiences such as Gondwana.
She remains connected to AJ and close to several choristers who shared those years with her. AJ and the team she has built have come such a long way, and we’re thankful Hannah could be part of that journey.”

“Being part of Luminescence Children’s Choir has been a positive and rewarding experience for our family. LCC provides the perfect balance of high musical standards, personal growth, exciting opportunities and a warm, supportive community.
The choir is led by professional musicians who bring a high standard of musical excellence. As a parent, I know my child is in capable and caring hands.
My child feels encouraged and cared for, while also being challenged to take himself seriously as a musician and always strive to do his best. The other children are kind and supportive of one another, creating a wonderful sense of belonging and shared purpose.
The choir also offers incredible opportunities beyond regular rehearsals and performances. My child has had the privilege of performing at special events like the Australia Day citizenship ceremony and the reopening of the War Memorial. These are memorable experiences that give the children a real sense of pride in what they do.”
