Sheet music for choirs

by Australian composer Kirsten Duncan

Browse original compositions and arrangements for SATB choir by Canberra composer Kirsten Duncan.

Kirsten has had a lifelong passion for choral singing. Now based in Canberra, Australia, she has performed with Gaudeamus (Judith Clingan), Hamburg International School (ISH) Singers, the choirs of Christ Church St Laurence Sydney (Dr Neil McEwan), The Resonants (Helen Swan) and others. Kirsten started composing choral music in 2015, contributing to the musical community that has been a stabilising thread throughout her life. She especially thanks Helen Swan and The Resonants for giving voice to her works.

Original works can be purchased here, where all income goes to the composer — thank you.
