Reika Suzuki-Macklin has been appointed Accompanist to the Sydney Male Choir from June 2024.

She completed her high school studies at the Sydney Conservatorium High School in 2020, attaining her LMusA in 2019 for piano under the tutelage of Phillip Shovk, and learned violin under the guidance of Nadia Monastrysky. 

The Sydney Male Choir and a 63 piece Symphony Orchestra took part in the screening of “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie on Saturday 16 June before a Matinee audience in excess of 4,000 and an evening screening before about 8,000.

We were proud to have been invited to be the guest choir at the screening of the Movie “Pirates of the Caribbean” at the ICC Sydney Theatre where we performed alongside a 63 piece symphony orchestra.

The SMC has had a busy year with concerts in the Greater Sydney area and a very successful regional tour throughout the New England and Mid Western area of NSW.

Your support has been critical and we thank you for that and look forward to an even better 2024.

To all of you and your families, have a great break and a fruitful 2024 full of good health and happiness.

A number of choristers received long service awards for 20, and 25 years membership and also our newly instituted “Hero Award” for coming back from the “brink” and becoming an active chorister with the SMC.

Seen here receiving their award from SMC President Gerry Byrne.

Thursday 7 December saw us return to 1 Bligh Street for the 4th year to entertain the lunchtime crowds before an enthusiastic audience.

The sound in this building because of the Huge Atrium was fantastic and carried up to the 30th Floor.
