Keeping your choir together while you are apart |
It’s been an extremely challenging time for choirs during the pandemic, as meeting and singing together quickly became impossible. However, in this webinar, panellists working in a range of different contexts discuss ways that they’ve been able to keep in touch and work with their choirs while they haven’t been able to meet in person, and suggest creative ideas to try out in the future.
