Fun, Entertainment, Charity sums us up. Learn more about us - what we do, and how we do it. We welcome anyone to come and listen any Thursday night at 7:30pm at the Ryde Anglican Centre, Church/Gowrie Streets, Ryde -see the details of our next Thursday night here.
We perform at many venues throughout the year. In doing that, we raise money for The Children’s Hospital at Westmead. If you wish to donate to this charity use the Donation box, bottom right on this page, and make a comment that it is purely for this charity.
We welcome anyone who enjoys singing and can carry a tune to join our chorus. Although previous musical training is an advantage, it is not a requirement, as we can provide all the necessary materials, instruction, techniques, and opportunity to reward our members with an enjoyable, satisfying, and healthy hobby. Most of our singers don't read music but use learning tracks.
New member Marnie wrote an advert for us last year and some of her words were...
THERE’S ROOM FOR ALL IN THE CHOIR
‘In my next life I want to be a singer’. How many times have you heard this? Or, ‘If I
could start again, I’d be a singer or at least sing in a choir’.
If this is what you’d love to do, or love to do again, you can do it now. The SydneySiders
Harmony Express Chorus is holding an open evening March 5th for anyone who thinks singing
would give them something extra special in their life. This choir has been active in Ryde
for more than twenty years and continues to attract new members of all ages.
One of the songs we sing ends with the words: There’s room for all in the choir!
So, whatever your prior experience come along and decide for yourself.
Now is the time to find your voice and sing in harmony.
Marnie, Ryde
A wonderful night singing to the Children
Our greatest pleasure each year is our Christmas visit to The Children's Hospital at Westmead. Sometimes we are able to entertain the children over the "in-house" television facility. We entertain at various spots and end up in one of the children's wards nurses station to sing and then present our annual donation to the Oncology, Unit. We were awarded the "Bear" statue when we attained the "Patron Status". As at the end of 2024 our donations over the years amount to over $190,000.jpg)
