We are still looking for opportunities to partner and build relationships with businesses in our community to help us achieve more as we strive to change lives through music.
OUR VALUES: Greatness, responsibility, community, respect. If your business values reflect ours, please reach out!
If you are connected with a business or someone who would like to partner with us, please get in touch with our Operations Coordinator, Bridget Cleary, [email protected]
Since its beginning, WACO has been lucky to call Churchlands SHS home. In our February 2017 concert, over 40% of our performers were current students or alumni of the Churchlands SHS specialised Music Program.
Established in 1972, to encourage young musical talent and raise the profile of music in the community through education, the Churchlands music program is now one of the state’s largest and most successful with graduates working in leading and principal positions in most high-profile national arts organisations. Working hard as part of a disciplined team, the students perform music in a wide range of styles, make rewarding friendships, travel, and contribute to the community. The program has a reputation, in Western Australia and beyond, for excellence in performance and music studies.
“[WACO] is such an amazing opportunity. Our repertoire is not only a joy to play and listen to, but full of complexities, and hectic for me as percussionist. I’ve nearly landed on top of the trumpets more than a few times now, rushing between instruments!”
