Raising the Roof was a spectacular community concert held to celebrate the re-opening of Melbourne’s iconic Hamer Hall in September 2012. It brought together hundreds of performers in a joyous celebration of grassroots musical culture in Melbourne.
The first half of the concert saw each group performing on the grand Hamer Hall stage. This FINALE united all the artists into a multi-cultural orchestra, with a special part for the audience. After a quick rehearsal to teach the audience their role, we truly RAISED the ROOF.
The video starts on the last chord from the Bombay Royale who opened the second half with a fantastic set.
