Please check your orders of service or our Facebook page each week to see who will be performing the following Thursday.
Music has an important role to play in the functioning of society and has had for many thousands of years. No human culture appears to be without music. Singing, in particular, seems to be universal. Music is invariably expressed in relation to religion. The music program at St Michael’s each week brings us some of the best musicians and music that Australia has to offer to enrich our experience during our Sunday services at special events during the year.

As Christmas quickly approaches, we are excited to welcome the mini-opera Amahl and the Night Visitors to St Michael’s, on Sunday 17 December at 1pm following service.
The story is of the Kings travelling to Bethlehem when they stop for a rest in a little cottage where Amahl, a young crippled boy, and his mother live. They are extremely poor but offer to give the Kings a place to rest for the night. During the night the Mother is strongly tempted by the gifts the Kings are carrying – to find out what happens you will need to come and see the opera!
Cordelia’s Potted Operas launched two years ago to give young emerging trusts the opportunity to perform with and learn from more experienced artists through Opera and Operetta.
This event is suitable for children.
When: 1pm, Sunday 17 December
