Vital Voices is a women’s community choir who sing for the “health” of it. Choir leader Karen Roben from Yackandandah was diagnosed with cancer in May 2013, and given a short prognosis. The choir was led by Shannon Anderson the night they performed at Winter Solstice 2014 in Wodonga, following Karen’s passing. 

The group performs simple yet beautiful songs in harmony. The joy in their voices is genuine, and truly palpable.
