One of the most important facets of Mood Swing is that we have fun with what we do and it comes across not only in our singing, but also in our performances. We may not have perfected laughing and singing at the same time, but we give it a fair go!
Since 2001, Mood Swing have been wowing audiences with our full sounds and suave choreography. With a range of music from '20s swing, African songs, traditional gospel, contemporary hits and fun ditties arranged in three and four parts, Mood Swing have something for All ages.
Fabulously led by Lisa Schwabe, Mood Swing have been singing around Melbourne at concerts, churches and private functions to the delight of All who see and hear us. Don't you be the one to miss out! less

LISTEN (Melissa Dunphy)
[2019 Resonance Ensemble Commission]
Texts adapted from testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, by Anita F. Hill and Christine Blasey Ford
Katherine FitzGibbon, conductor
The composer writes:
Writing LISTEN was an emotional process. The first hurdle was deciding which excerpts from the testimonies of Anita Hill and Christine Blasey Ford to set, which meant reading and listening and living inside these women’s harrowing stories for an extended period.

One night when I was 15, after a performance, while we were still on stage, one of the boy... less
