HAMER SINGERS was established in 2017 with Jonathan Grieves-Smith, Artistic Director. Jonathan’s international reputation, visionary artistic planning and musical insight attracted a deeply committed body of singers with decades of performance experience. This potent partnership has carved a prominent niche in Melbourne’s rich choral landscape.
The 50-voice choir performs thrilling repertoire from five continents over 500 years, including works by Orlando Gibbons, Anton Bruckner, Gabriel Fauré, John Tavener, Arvo Pärt, James MacMillan, Ēriks Ešenvalds and others.
In establishing this ensemble, the Singers acknowledge their collective debt and pay homage to the Hamer family’s longstanding dedication and legacy to music and the arts in Melbourne.
