Music can heal the soul, or so they say! I’m willing to bet that no matter who you are, or where you are from, music is innately, deeply tied into your upbringing. Whether through religion, culture, anti-culture, sad times or happy times: so the list goes on..... it was there.
In many countries, there has been a recent, social phenomenon of non professional, group choirs.
One of the most popular in Australia, is “The Pub Choir.”
Before Covid19, the facilitators would advertise they would be at a particular town and venue on a certain day/date. For a small fee you could be guaranteed an entry, and you would be emailed the lyrics that they would be singing, so you could learn it in advance.
They are wonderful concepts for socialisation and well being. They would practise for awhile, then video record the final song and this would be placed on YouTube.
Those days are currently gone, for now...... 😞
BUT here is the latest release.
- The conductor is in an empty hall.
- The singers are all individual videos sent to the facilitator and all were included in the song.
PLEASE take the time to watch this heart lifting video, on the link below. We are all in this together!
