Coast to Coast

In this community choir project participants developed their musical skills, learned songs that celebrate rivers and oceans, and wrote a beautiful song of their own. After the workshops, participants performed the songs they learned alongside musicians from the Nevis Ensemble in one private performance and one public performance as part of the COP26 Fringe. An MP3 recording of the choir singing their own original song is upcoming.
