The Allegri Singers come back to Oberon

June 12, 2025

Bathurst's Allegri Singers will be back in Oberon on July 5, with a performance at the Uniting Church. If they are only half as good as they were at a concert at the Malachi last year (and nobody expects they will be) they will still put on a fantastic show.

Here's a media release about the show.

Allegri Singers, Bathurst present "Eat, Sing & be Merry".

Final touches - a bit of polish and shine - are being applied to program content for Allegri Singers’ first concert of 2025.

Under the title "Eat, Sing & be Merry", the concert is designed to tease the musical taste buds of audiences in Bathurst and Oberon.

This will be a light-hearted entertainment, with flavours and samples from sundry sources - (pardon the puns!).

The program will include jazz numbers from the New York speakeasies of the 1930s, a protest song from the 60s, modern settings of ancient nursery rhymes, show songs, folk, and a couple of foreign language numbers. From somewhat serious to downright hilarious, sentimental to silly, and occasionally a little bit naughty, audiences may expect to experience a range of mood changes and emotive moments.

Musical Director William Moxey has the extraordinary talent of finding excellent musical arrangements of well-known songs, and assembling them into a really appealing program. His ability to bring out the best in the Allegri Singers has enabled them to present outstanding performances in a wide range of musical gems.

One of the aims of Allegri Singers is to offer the opportunity of public performance to talented young emerging musicians. For this program, the choir is delighted to welcome harpist Paris Masters and soprano Sienna Flannery whose performances are sure to delight audiences.

It has been great fun for the choir to prepare the concert and this joy will no doubt be shared by audiences!
