Following on from the formation of a Birralee Tenth Anniversary Alumni Choir in 2005, Resonance of Birralee was formed under the leadership of Paul Holley. The young people involved represent a variety of professions and a significant number are tertiary students. They share a common love of singing and in many cases are accomplished musicians. One of their strengths as an ensemble is their expertise and appreciation of a broad range of music styles and their ability to adapt their programme to suit any event.
In 2008 Resonance competed at the World Choir Games in Graz, Austria, where they won Gold and Silver medals in popular vocal and gospel categories. Resonance continues to be in demand at concerts and community and civic events. In addition to their own programs, they have recorded with the Queensland Pops Orchestra in 2007 and featured in Queensland Pops Orchestra's since 2006 including Pride of the Celts, Chartbusters and Let's Swing Again (2010). In the past 12 months they have performed at Brisbane Sings and are the choir for the Lord Mayors Carols in the City. They have also recorded songs for the Voices of Birralee Sleep and Dreams album released in April 2009 and "Sing For Australia" in 2010. Their own CD is due for release in late 2012, along with their involvement in the Voices of Birralee 2012 Christmas CD.
