About Leichhardt Espresso Chorus
LEICHHARDT ESPRESSO CHORUS is a non auditioned choir from Sydney’s inner west. We are a vibrant, enthusiastic group who love to sing and give performances with caffeine-fuelled energy! The chorus is committed to innovation and excellence, proudly supporting the commissioning of new Australian choral works and the presentation of traditional repertoire.
Over the past 11 years, the LEC has sponsored the development of 12 new choral commissions and countless orchestral arrangements. We aim to invigorate community singing.

Annual Events
Annually we have a full calendar of events that typically includes:
- Carols on Norton, our free outdoor community concert with Orchestra and 100 voices, thanks to our sponsors.
- Traditional choral performances at St James and other Sydney venues
- Workshops at Moorambilla Festival
- Involvement in various community events such as the Festival of Sydney (Sydney Opera House 2007), Performance Space Housewarming at CarriageWorks (2007), Battle of the Choirs (Seven Network 2008) and Choir of the Year (ABC Classic FM 2007) where the choir was named NSW Runner up.
Mentoring Program
The chorus has a proud tradition of mentoring the Moorambilla regional children’s choirs as part of the Moorambilla Festival in Coonamble, outback NSW each September. We encourage the formation of adult choirs in the region through our involvement with the Festival as its choir in residence, a position we have held since 2006.
