Nest of Songbirds has been a fantastic project to be part of. It has been amazing how much the project has opened my mind to the potential of what the choir can do. The way that we can link with other choirs and organisations as well as other art forms. We have really got behind this project and it has inspired the choir to become even more solid and organised than it was before. As a cross generational project I thought it was really successful at bringing together different age groups from the school and the community choir at an event together. In terms of linking with community history and story telling it was an absolute score. These songs will continue through the choir for many years. It’s also great that we have them recorded so that they can be shared by anyone. In short it has been an inspiring and successful project on every level.
