Midlife Choirsis
Midlife Choirsis is a celebration of the joy, connection, and magic of choir singing in communities all across the world. Far from being the “poor cousin” of choral music, community choirs are vibrant spaces where people come together to make something extraordinary - in many cases, with little formal training.
Each episode uncovers inspiring stories of group music-making, while shining a spotlight on the creativity and skill of a wide variety of directors, leaders, composers and arrangers who bring these voices to life. At its core, the community choir is the beating heart of music-making: joyful, messy, powerful, and absolutely worth celebrating.
