I discovered the background of the very talented man behind the newly-formed Lithgow Choir, Rowen Fox. I know Rowen as a fun-filled, shy, low-key, unassuming man and a wonderful choir leader, so for anyone in the area who likes to sing and wishes to join a great choir, please take note.

Rowen is Musical Director of the Phoenix Choir; the Blue Mountains largest SATB choir, who regularly perform in Lithgow. Rowen is also an accomplished conductor and composer.

Rowen has composed and performed instrumental works, songs and song cycles, choral and stage works, plus incidental music. Rowen’s forte is composition/arranging and he has an amazing way of passing on his knowledge in a fun all-inclusive environment.
