Welcome to Solid Harmony Choir Website |
|
Solid Harmony is a young people's choir set up by Jane Wheeler, Nick
Bowers-Broadbent and Mo Mason in April 2002. It was designed to be an
alternative to Revelation Community Youth Gospel Choir,
but has become a force to be reckoned with. Based in Newham, East
London, it has over 30 members aged 9 -21 from schools and colleges
across the borough, with a strong senior membership taking part in NewVIc's
Activ8 program. The members of the choir take pride in singing all
kinds of music, from Gospel, R n' B and Rock, to Folk, World music and
Classical. It encourages members to write and compose for the choir and
has student support from Diân Gasper as Assistant Musical Director and Chrystal Lecointe as Assistant Web Editor. Solid Harmony was set up initially with Neighborhood Renewal Fund from Newham Council. For more information go to About us. |

Solid
Harmony Choir set the scene at the amazing Youth Music Event at the
Hard Rock cafe. This was a very proud moment, not only as it was the
choir's first performance of this academic year with several new
members, but because they were part of a programme to celebrate the
amazing work that Youth Music do.
Helen Price said, "They certainly got
the event off to a fantastic start and they really sang their hearts
out. The band was fabulous as well of course"
Thank you Youth Music
for all your support and for the opportunity to take part. |

STOP PRESS! 2 amazing things happened this week for Solid Harmony Choir:
1.
As a celebration for their amazing performance at St. Edmund's Church on
26th July, Solid Harmony went to see our very own Itoya Enahoro
Perform as Femi in 'The Fiddler'
at the Unicorn Theatre, London Bridge. The whole production was
compelling, inspiring, challenging, and emotionally both disturbing and
uplifting all at once! Itoya's performance suspended disbelieve and
made us all proud. Well done everyone performing.
2.
Our associate choir and friends, Revelation Gospel choir got through to
the FINAL 4 of the Last Choir Standing on BBC 1 this weekend! We are SO
PROUD, not least because our very own webmaster Chrystal Lecointe and
recent chaperone on the choir residency in Scotland is in Revelation
Choir. We know you are a truly winning choir Revelation, no matter what
now happens in the last few rounds. Congratulations on your achievement
in getting SO FAR in this National competition. EVERYONE, PLEASE DONT
FORGET TO VOTE NEXT SATURDAY! |
