Glenda Lynelle

Glenda Lynelle spent the majority of her working life as a music educator, choral director and Head of the Music at St Andrew’s School, Walkerville. She is a keen advocate of Kodaly Methodology and enjoys incorporating it in her choral lessons.

Glenni’s passion for vocal studies and choral work spans some 37 years. Her involvement as a choral tutor with the award-winning Young Adelaide Voices (also formerly known as Adelaide Girls’ Choir) continues to this day, and she recognises these years as significant in her choral education.

Glenni also enjoyed her association with Woodville Concert Choir as their MD from 2014-2021.

She is delighted to be working with ILLUMINA VOICES.

Helen ANGOVE

Helen has been a valuable asset to ILLUMINA VOICES since its inception when she was both the reserve accompanist and a chorister.  With the departure of Betty Tothill OAM in January 2011, Helen accepted the role of accompanist for ILLUMINA VOICES and the choir continues to benefit from her reliable and conscientious support.

Helen is an experienced accompanist who began playing piano and organ for church services as a teenager.  She then went on to accompany the Churches of Christ Youth Choir which specialised in Gilbert & Sullivan operettas.

For many years Helen was the repetiteur for a number of groups including the Gilbert & Sullivan Society, the Savoyards, the Marie Clark Theatre Company, Achord, the Matinee Entertainers and the Myall Ensemble.  From 1996 – 2007 she was an accompanist for school choirs taking part in the South Australian Primary Schools Festival of Music.

Helen accompanied three of the training choirs within the Adelaide Girls Choir (now Young Adelaide Voices).  She was accompanist for the Maughan Uniting Church Choir and the Good News Singers (who performed on radio) and currently she accompanies the vocal quartet Cantorae.

Helen introduced and continues to lead the Choir Chimes group at Brougham Place Uniting Church, and also accompanies the church choir.
