You beauty! The next Voice Weavers show is coming up fast and it’s gonna be a beauty! The Australian Spectacular will feature a bunch of blokes & sheilas singing a whole swag of popular Aussie songs, from Dorothea Mackellar’s My Country to Australia’s alternative national anthem, Waltzing Matilda. There’ll be a bit of home-grown culture with Yothu Yindi’s Djapana and Christine Anu’s My Island Home, as well as some some tearjerking favourites like I Am Australian and I Still Call Australia Home. There will also be a selection of good old Aussie advertising jingles and a bevy of small groups and guest acts to provide some variety. Voice Weavers President, Rob Partridge, is very involved with the staging of the Australian Spectacular show which is the brainchild of the choir’s Musical Director, Brett Logan. Rob, who creates many of the choir’s four-part arrangements, explains that Voice Weavers is a mixed choir located at the southern end of the Gold Coast. “We specialise in popular, contemporary music”, Rob says, “but we also sing classical, gospel and other styles. “We’ve performed at a wide range of events up and down the coast, and we’re really loving the challenge of presenting Australian music in a spectacular fashion!
