A few photos of me with friends, doing what I love to do – party and sing!
The ROCS girls, at a formal dinner. That's me, second from left, in the brown dress.
ROCS (RMIT Occasional Choral Society) has been my home choir for a number of years, and whenever I’m in Melbourne I still try to go back and sing. They’re the best bunch of people you could find.
The choir has made a name for itself internationally for its support of up and coming young composers, as well as for having a large percentage of its own choristers who are composers and noted musicologists themselves, including Philip Legge, Sandra Bogerd, Michael Winikoff, me (!!) and Theresa Wallner.
My husband Michael and me.
Michael and I first met in 1993, and even then I was blown away by his talent – he’s one of the most accomplished musicians I’ve ever met.
After time, I came to learn he had other virtues as well, and we married in 1998.
It was the best decision of my life, and every day I am thankful that he chose me to share his journey.
Singing at a choir camp revue with friends. I'm wearing the yellow top.
I came to composition through a love of choir and singing, and I still sing when I can. This photo shows a group of close friends having a great time singing at a choir camp revue.
There’s nothing better than standing up in front of a microphone and singing your heart out with a bit of jazz!
Leanne Daharja Veitch's works have been described as "magical", delving into the "very essence of that which makes music great".
