WHAT’S ON NOW

SUMS is excited to announce its 2025 choral composition competition, open to all students and members of AICSA choirs!

Upcoming Concert: “Ripples and Reveries”

Our first concert of the year, Ripples and Reveries, will weave a selection of historical and contemporary pieces all intertwined in an evening filled with colour and delight.

SUMS Weekly Rehearsal

SUMS has rehearsals every Wednesday, from 6:30pm- 8:30pm on USYD campus. Join our mailing list to keep updated on the exact location each semester.

SUMS acknowledges and pays respect to the traditional owners of the land on which we meet (the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation). It is upon their ancestral lands that the University of Sydney is built. As we share our own knowledge, teaching, learning, and research practices within this University may we also pay respect to the knowledge embedded forever within the Aboriginal Custodianship of Country.
