The Canberra Children's Choir (CCC) is a choir of children established in 1967 in Canberra, Australia. It mainly comprises musicians aged 6 to 16.
The Canberra Children's Choir was established in 1967 with 35 children by Judith Clingan.[1] The Canberra Children's Choir was one of the key ensembles in Music for Everyone.
