It's this week, so get your tickets now!!!!!!

Australian Catholic University in partnership with St Patrick's Cathedral (Melbourne) and St Patrick's College (Ballarat), led by conductor Dr Kathleen McGuire (Audrie's wife), is very excited to be presenting two concerts in Ballarat and Melbourne, with a live stream option for the Melbourne concert. Proceeds for both concerts will benefit ‘Peplow House Crisis Accommodation Support, Ballarat’ and ACU’s Urgent Financial Hardship Grants helping students affected by homelessness.

Special guest artist and proud Indigenous singer, Jess Hitchcock along with volunteer singers, choirs, and instrumentalists from Victoria and Auckland, New Zealand, will combine in this special international event.

The program features the 10th-anniversary performance of STREET REQUIEM – For Those Who Died On The Street, which was co-created by Kathleen McGuire, Jonathon Welch and Andy Payne in 2014. The work, which is highly accessible, multi-faith, and multi-language, has been performed more than 30 times in several countries. STREET REQUIEM was awarded a Judge's Citation by The American Prize for “Dignifying the homeless through song.”

All tickets purchased are 100% tax-deductible.
