Brighton LGBT choir jets off to Dublin for international choral festival.
The Rainbow Chorus, Brighton and Hove’s LGBT choir, will be heading off to Dublin in June to sing in the worlds only international LGBT choral festival.
Various Voices, which is held every 4 years, brings together LGBT choirs from around the world to sing, learn new skills and socialise.
The 2014 event is attracting choirs from all over Europe, as well from as far afield as Canada, the USA, Australia and New Zealand. The Various Voices event has proven to be an important event on the LGBT events calendar and Rainbow Chorus are looking forward to appearing in concert in Dublin.
A long standing member of the choir, said: “I was lucky enough to go to London for the last Various Voices festival in which we performed a concert called Choral Propaganda. I had a brilliant time, as did the other members of the Rainbow Chorus who went as well.”
A newer member of the choir, added: “It will be fabulous to see and hear other choirs from around the world, and also to meet their members. We should also learn a thing or two from them!”
The Rainbow Chorus will perform Strength in Harmony at Various Voices on June 14, 2014 under the direction of their musical director Aneesa Chaudhry and accompanied by Mojca Monte.
The Rainbow Chorus is the only Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) choir on the southcoast. Based in Brighton and Hove, the choir aims to provide an enjoyable and supportive environment for LGBT members to sing together, making new friends, developing their community spirit, individual talents and confidence. Through performance, the Rainbow Chorus also raises the profile of the LGBT community in Brighton & Hove and further afield as well as providing top quality entertainment.
