The South Australian branch was the first branch of The Royal School of Church Music to be formed in Australia around 1944, chaired by Canon Horace Percy (HP) Finnis as “Australian Representative”. St Peter’s College, Adelaide was the first choir in Australia affiliated to the RSCM in 1931, followed by St Peter’s Cathedral, Adelaide, in 1932. The committee is based in Adelaide.
