THE New I Voci Singers choir has been hitting the high notes for three decades and continues to attract young members, including Hamilton Hill singer Teresa Ingrilli.

The choir performed at retirement villages and at its own events in the early years of inception but has gained national recognition as a professional group over the years.

Its annual spring concert, titled Spring in the Ballroom, will run at Government House Ballroom on Sunday from 3pm.

The concert funds will go towards the group’s trip to Germany in January, as well as future publications and CDs.

Ingrilli, who sings in the alto section of the group, said the audience could expect to hear music ranging from 16th-century madrigals to modern jazz pieces.

The 24-year-old joined the choir in 2005 and said she loved singing in a group.

“I love that the people are all my age and that it is a small group so everyone has an important part to play,” she said.

Her love of singing was kindled when she was eight and was chosen to be in her primary school choir.

She sang in choirs until Year 12 and started singing lessons when she was 16.

Ingrilli will sing solo during the Fremantle Festival at Kulcha on November 15.
