TEACHER and MUSIC FACILITATOR

CHOIR LEADER - LONDON BOROUGH OF NEWHAM

I have run one particular choir NEWHAM SUPER CHOIR in Newham East London since 2006.


I also run Singing for Health in the borough, which as the title suggests, introduces the participants to the benefits of singing.


I have previously run singing projects in different community centres in the borough.  The participants from these centres have since joined Newham Super Choir.


I don't only work with adults -  I was the Classical Music Leader for Newham Young Peoples Chorus for 3 years.


There are two films, to do with my Newham choirs, below 

MUSIC FACILITATOR

There is a movement to introduce singing to care homes as a regular activity.  Especially those with dementia.  


I have been involved in a project for NAPA and several projects for C&C www.ccht.org.uk (Central and Cecil charity) in their care homes and assisted living blocks.


In 2016 C&C celebrated 90 years of existence with a project MY FRONT DOOR.    There is a film of the 2 day event at the bottom of the page.

THE CHOIR THAT WAS SILENCED.....ALMOST.

During Lockdown some members of the choirs met via Zoom.  I decided to make a film about their experiences during the months they were forced to be at home.  Because of the restrictions I was forced to do the interviews via Zoom too, making it all the more relevant.

This is a film made by Bernie Wighton of Newham Super Choir in action back in 2014.
