The People’s Remix Choir was an accessible and inclusive virtual choir. It was an opportunity for everyone passionate about singing to be featured on a commercial disco-house recording with award-winning ensemble, Sense of Sound destined to be released on all streaming platforms, regardless of singing experience, age or location.
About the project
This was stage 2 of an online choir series curated by Jennifer John during lockdown. Series 1, Love Sings, was a global community project that brought together 180 people from 15 different countries as a virtual choir.
This was the creation of an online recording of Sense of Sounds’ version of the club classic ‘Follow Me’ by Aly-Us, open to everyone regardless of age, location or singing experience.
