The aim of the Central
Coast Philharmonia is to
contribute to the community by encouraging people of all ages to sing choral
music and to enhance their musical skills and enjoyment by participating in public
performances with our musical associates. We do this by maintaining a viable
choir and orchestra. We usually give three performances per year
in our own right. We also enjoy performing at concerts arranged by others where
they help the community. |

Our choir consists of between 70 and 80
members of all ages and abilities, and our performances range from very serious
to quite light. We have the privilege of having an orchestra of professional
players and a professional conductor. Our audiences range from 250 to about 400.
The Central Coast Philharmonia choir rehearses on Monday nights at the Central
Coast Conservatorium at 45 Mann St, Gosford in a very friendly atmosphere.
New members are always welcome, no
auditions necessary. If you are
interested, contact our president, Trevor Moore, on 4368 4364.

 We are privileged to
have the patronage of Peter Sculthorpe, AO, OBE, who is probably
Australia's foremost composer. He has written works in most musical
forms, and his output relates easily to the unique social climate and
physical characteristics of Australia. Furthermore, his country's
geographical position has caused him to be influenced by much of the
music of Asia, especially that of Japan and Indonesia. Certainly he is
Australia's best-known composer, and his works are regularly performed
and recorded throughout the world. |
