ChoirCast - Virtual Choir
ChoirCast - California Dreamin' (The Mamas & The Papas Virtual Choir Cover)
It's Autumn and ChoirCast are back with this leafy classic!
36 people come together in song, this time singing California Dreamin', dedicated to the people of California and the west coast of America whose lives have been affected by the 2020 wildfires.
***Please donate to the California Community Foundation - help the victims deal with the aftermath of the disaster***

Featuring singers from around the world - including California. And musicians from Bristol!
The painting featured is by one of our very own ChoirCast members, Mary Dale Esposito. Painting is something she has been thriving in since lockdown - it really does look beautiful in this video!
We hope you enjoy our summer of love twist!
Singers all videoed themselves at home on their phones.
Featuring people across continents as well as Bristol Choir Brigade where it all began. Plus The BBC Pips choir, as well as Eliza's students and even some of her old school friends.
