'Shout for joy to the Lord all the earth. Worship the Lord with gladness...'
Psalm 100
Performance
Christ Church Beechworth hosts a regular concert series for its community and the revenue it generates helps to maintain its fine colonial-built pipe organ and grand piano and support the fabric of our buildings. The University of Melbourne's Queens College Choir, Duo Gaku 楽, pianists Josh Hooke and Sandra Williams and soprano Colleen Arnott, among other musicians, perform.
