About The Project

We are expecting a very exciting delivery here at Stay At Home Choir Towers: A brand new piece of music written by Gareth Malone.

However, one key element will be missing, and that is where YOU come in...

For this project, you won't just be singing your hearts out; you'll also have the chance to help Gareth write the lyrics for this piece, in a huge collaborative project called ‘Notes for Our World’.

Thanks to everyone who took part in our creative writing sessions. Notes For Our World is now complete and ready to sing - submissions are open until 1st June.

Follow the instructions below to sign up and access our learning tracks and recording guides.

How Do I Get Involved?

This project is open to everyone who wants to sing, whether you’d like to be actively involved in suggesting material or just gain an insight into how it all works.

Sign up below, or join our waitlist to apply for a free place. 

The final song will be released as a charity single on all streaming platforms, featuring lyrics collated by Gareth to make a powerful a statement of international cooperation and peace from singers around the world.

All profits from the single will go towards supporting the humanitarian efforts in Ukraine.

We believe that music should be accessible to everyone.

FAQs

  • I'm unable to join the live rehearsals, can I watch them back later?

    Yes! All of our projects are streamed live to Youtube. You can join in live in Zoom or on Youtube and all rehearsals will be made available to watch back as many times as you like. (usually within 24 hours)

  • Do I have to submit a video? Can I just take part in the rehearsals?

    Not if you don’t want to! It’s absolutely fine for you to just come along to rehearsals and take part in the process without submitting a video. If you’re just camera-shy, don’t worry! You can submit an audio-only recording if you prefer.

  • I've not sung in an in-person choir before and don't have much/any choir experience, can I still take part?

    Absolutely! We provide all the materials you need to learn the music for our projects, including the score, voice-part specific rehearsals, and learning tracks. With members from over 75 countries with every possible experience level we make sure that whichever way you learn there are the resources you need.
