An ecstatic New York Times critic wrote: “The Vocal Consort sang superbly…a smooth, seamless blend” and the ensemble continues to earn superlatives from critics and audiences alike.

Originally formed in 1984 to complement the work of the Australian Boys Choir, the group also has a separate life of its own, presenting approximately 12 major concerts and other performances each year. The group is developing new audiences and formats for vocal performance and setting a standard rarely achieved by other Australian groups.

Most members of the Consort gained their early training through the Australian Boys Choir and now provide inspiring role models for the boys in repertoire ranging from plainchant and polyphony to various contemporary styles. 

The Vocal Consort has toured internationally eight times, in particular to Europe, Asia and North America. They regularly perform throughout regional Australia and in 2008 were a featured group at the Hobart Festival of Voices.

The Consort has released three CDs, that last of which, 'Incantations', was launched in April 2012. CDs are available for purchase on the Consort's website.
