Any day where we get to sing is a great day! This recital for Leeds Xmas Market – 13/12 featured choir members from the Roundhay, Horsforth, Wakefield, Ilkley, Keighley, West Sheffield, York, Selby, Darlington, Thirsk, Northallerton, Ripon, Harrogate, Wetherby, Barnsley, Doncaster, Sheffield, Bradford, Dewsbury & Halifax choirs led by their choir leader Ainjiel-Shaolee Clark. Ainjiel-Shaolee said ‘The choir members did so well, everyone was truly professional in their performance and deserved to be up there.’ The event was FREE.
We were performing inside. We can’t remember what the weather was doing on the day but everyone was thrilled to be there to sing together. A good few members arrived very early due the excitement of performing and this concert featured members from a lot of local choirs and it took some time for the members to get into position in their harmony parts! It was super to see the support of family and friends of the choir members, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The choir performed songs from their recent repertoire such as ‘What Christmas Means To Me‘ by Stevie Wonder and choir favourite ‘I Don’t Wanna Miss A Thing’ by Aerosmith. The show was in aid of Little Hiccups. Huge thanks to everyone who helped.
Performance location: Leeds City Museum STEPS, Millennium Square, Leeds LS2 8BH

**STOP PRESS** The world’s largest contemporary choir, Rock Choir, is gearing up to release not one, but two sensational singles in the official charts as the nation begins its countdown to Christmas. Both tracks will be released on the 6th December.
The first single, ‘Hallelujah’, features the Creator of Rock Choir, Caroline Redman Lusher, as the soloist. Her powerhouse vocals are accompanied by the dynamic, harmonious vocals of over 6,000 Rock Choir members. The accompanying video showcases emotional and striking footage of more than 3,000 Rock Choir members across the UK, capturing the joy and emotion of being part of the nation’s favourite choir experience. This uplifting video is a heartfelt celebration of the life-changing and transformative power of Rock Choir. With Caroline as the beating heart of the incredible Rock Choir phenomenon, she continues her mission to encourage everyone—regardless of experience or musical knowledge—to sing, positively impacting their happiness, health, and well-being.
The second single is the festive classic ‘What Christmas Means to Me’ by Stevie Wonder. This energetic, upbeat track radiates contagious joy and festive spirit, perfectly embodying the essence of Rock Choir! While the two tracks contrast in style and presentation, they symbolise the key ingredients that make Rock Choir the largest, original, and leading choir experience in the country.
