The Gisborne Singers Inc. are a community choir based in the Macedon Ranges region of Victoria, Australia. Established in 1979[1], the group performs choral works and participates in community events, with a focus on serving rural populations and individuals affected by chronic illnesses[1].

Organized as a non-auditioned choir[4], the ensemble rehearses weekly at the Uniting Church in Gisborne and has been described as the premier choral group in the Macedon Ranges[5]. Under music directors such as Stephen Brockman, the choir has performed major works including international appearances at venues like Carnegie Hall during their 2017 tour[5].

The choir presents regular concerts including bi-yearly recitals and cabaret performances at venues like Kyneton Mechanics Institute[2]. Notable productions include large-scale works accompanied by orchestras and professional soloists, such as performances of classical pieces adapted into English[5]. Concert programming often features collaborations with vocalists including soprano Cristina Russo and tenor Christopher Roache[5].

Community engagement includes participation in fundraising initiatives like Relay for Life[2]. Membership remains open to local residents without formal auditions, with rehearsals structured to accommodate varying experience levels[4][5]. The group has maintained continuous operations since its founding, celebrating over four decades of musical activity in regional Victoria[1][5].
