…We believe that singing together is a powerful tool for bringing people together. Now is the time to put that tool to work.
The #Sing1Voice effort calls on the choral community to give voice to the things that unite us rather than divide us. As Francisco Núñez, artistic director of the Young People’s Chorus of New York City said, “Maybe if we listen to each other’s music, we will be willing to listen to each other’s words.”
We invite your chorus, choir, or singing ensemble to participate – and to spread the message. Here’s how:

[av_textblock size=” font_color=” color=”]
• Find or film a video of your ensemble singing about something that unites us – love, beauty, truth, peace.
• Share your video using the hashtag #Sing1Voice on Facebook, YouTube, and any other social media platforms you use.
• Invite more groups to do the same. In your post, tag at least two ensembles that are somehow different from yours – whether in location, genre, size, heritage, or another way – and invite them to participate.
Let’s create a space in which we can listen to and learn from each other.
Here is the Young People’s Chorus of New York City kicking off #Sing1Voice.
