Introducing the tutor, Jo Randell: It was in 1996 or ‘97 that I offered to lead a singing group at KLC. Having enjoyed many KLC courses, I thought I’d like to have a go at leading one. From a rather timid start, Sing Your Heart Out has become an important part of my week – a time for songs and lovely company! Influenced by the Natural Voice movement, I have adopted the belief that anyone can sing and while acknowledging that some people find it difficult, I’m convinced that if you can speak, you can sing.  Apart from the benefits to the individual, I am fascinated by the community-building that comes from simply singing together. This shared experience creates a bond that transcends difference and feels wonderful, open-hearted and hopeful. The simple idea that singing together can lead to better understanding between us is what drives me and I’m thrilled to be in a position to encourage others to sing, for all the benefits that are now so well known.
Jo is also the co-founder of the ‘Madjitil Moorna: Singers of Aborioginal Songs’ choir and has received several awards for her service to the community through music, including the Medal of Australia in 2020.

    We are lucky to have Jo as our tutor. She is such a talented woman – she can bring a group of novices up to scratch in no time; introduces us to a wide variety of songs, from different countries and different styles of choral work which broaden our knowledge. It is amazing to be a part of this group. Not only can we produce some real quality choral work, but enjoy some great laughs along the way.

    Jo has a very laid back approach which puts everyone at ease right from the start. An absolute pleasure to be a part of SYHO.
