A Skagit Valley Chorale rehearsal early last year became a deadly COVID-19 superspreader event. Now, the group is figuring out how to come back together and reforge the bonds of a community choir.
All the singers in this U.K. choir have undergone laryngectomies — voice box removal — to treat cancer. Singing builds lung strength, and performing together builds confidence, choir members say.
This car choir solution is one that accomplished baritone David Newman came up with so that ensembles could sing "together." The method uses microphones, a mixer, an FM transmitter and car radios.
