From Cairo to Graz: The Choir Project

The Choir Project invites people from all walks of life to put their hopes and concerns, their feelings and thoughts, their jokes and woes into song. A week-long workshop of communal improvisation, lyric-writing and composition culminates in a short performance – with often surprising results.

“The Choir Project“ explores different themes of relevance to the community. The results can never be the same; they will always be new and unpredictable, depending on the theme, the people involved and what happens in the moment – the unique experience unfolding in the rehearsal room. The only constant is the drive towards self-expression and community collaboration and the spirit of equal and active participation.The Choir Project is open to everyone. It started in Cairo, then offered workshops in Alexandria, Amman, Beirut, London, Munich, Berlin, Paris, Istanbul and now Graz.
