Community choirs and performers within the Liverpool city region have been working hard with Jay McWinen, over the past few months for a collaborative festive concert, exampling how diverse communities can engage together through the art of group singing. No matter of ability, experience, age or background, Jay has created this inclusive, intergenerational opportunity for anyone who loves to sing.
Community choirs involved are The H’arts and Voices from Widnes-m Halton’s very own award winning community choir.
The Mersey voices from Liverpool- Current and retired NHS workers. The Rainbow Chorus- Liverpool’s original LGBT+ community choir. Special guests include professional and aspiring singers, of mixed ages, whose talents are showcased together providing learning and development of the arts. .
Jay Mcwinen (LIPA GRADUATE):
‘This concert is not only a festive celebration for Christmas, but celebrates the dedication and need of community inclusion. It examples how the joy of singing together really does create stronger, healthier communities that engage with each other no matter of how diverse or different they are. My work with Miriam Mussa, at Liverpool’s Royal Court, who is a pioneer for engaging diversity in the arts, inspired me to take the spotlight to them. I might be hosting the show, but it is them, that are the stars of it’.
