About us

Southern Sounds Chorus is a fun and friendly group of approximately thirty ladies from the Mornington Peninsula area. We love to sing in 4 part harmony, and we are part of Sweet Adelines International (SAI), which is an organisation of approximately 500 different choruses around the world that is committed to advancing the musical art form of barbershop harmony through education, competition and performance.

As a chorus, we meet every week on a Tuesday evening, for gentle physical warm ups, followed by breathing and vocal exercises. We then rehearse our current repertoire, either in our sections, or as a chorus under the direction of Karen Dawson. After rehearsals, we enjoy a cuppa and a chat.

We love not only to sing in harmony, but we also like to perform our songs using some simple choreography and expressive showmanship. We perform and regularly sing at local venues, including entertaining shoppers during the festive season.

On several weekends throughout the year we host a visiting coach for some extra tuition to enhance our barbershop skills.

We perform a selection of music such as: True Colours, California Dreamin', What A Wonderful Word, I Can't Give You Anything but Love, I Am Australian, I Dreamed a Dream, Tuxedo Junction, The Impossible Dream, I Still Call Australia Home.

We are proudly sponsored by Canadian Bay Travel and Frankston City Council, and thank them for their support.
