  • 3WelcomeIt is my greatest pleasure to welcome you to the Giving Back to Gondwana Choirs - Music Soiree, Concert & Cocktail Party. As a past participant of Gondwana National Choirs, and Brisbane Grammar 6chools 0usic &aptain, , wanted to give back to the organization that has given me so many incredible musical opportunities in Australia and overseas. Gondwana Choirs has an international reputation for performance excellence, and comprises the most accomplished choral groups of young people in $ustralia. 6ince , *ondwana has grown to include 6ydney &hildrens &hoir, five *ondwana National Choirs with singers from all over Australia and *ondwana ,ndigenous &hildrens &hoir. /yn Williams O$0, *ondwana &hoirs founder and director, has been an inspiration to me since meeting her as a yearold boy.

    Thanks to your incredible generosity, the money raised tonight and from kind sponsors, will provide music bursaries for talented young Indigenous musicians from all over Australia to attend *ondwana &hoirs worldrenowned 1ational &horal 6chool in 6ydney. 7his twoweek program brings together singers, composers and conductors from across Australia. Each January at National Choral School, I was given expert musical training from renowned musicians and educators from Australia and overseas. Thanks to all of you, indigenous singers wont miss out on the passion for music and opportunities that , have been lucky to receive, because of financial barriers.

    *ondwana &hoirs is a lifechanging e[perience. /yn Williams is on the ground working to change childrens lives through elite music education. , believe that music is a powerful language to create change, and I want to thank everyone involved for your generosity and support to help close the gap. 7he *ondwana ,ndigenous &hildrens &hoir gives talented young indigenous singers the opportunity to share their voices, music and culture with the world.I look forward to meeting you at the Cocktail Party after the Concert.
