Sydney Gay & Lesbian Choir to perform at Waseda University
On April 15th, the Intercultural Communication Center (ICC) at Waseda University will be holding a special concert with visiting “Sydney Gay and Lesbian Choir” from Australia.
Founded in 1991, the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Choir has performed both in Australia and abroad for over 25 years and has a varied repertoire which reflects their diversity.
