Classic Blend
Sonia, Donna, Paul and Ric came together to form Classic Blend at the start of 2024, with the aim of creating exciting mixed four-part harmonies as they approach the peaks of their lives. Experienced quarteters all, their first entrance to singing in competition was an unqualified success, bringing home silver in the Seniors Mixed Quartet Division in the National Festival on the Gold Coast in September 2024. With a distinctive mellow sound, this ensemble looks forward to entertaining many more patrons yet over the next few years.
