The group has been running virtual choirs and group leader Paul Mellors captured dozens of performances to create this stunning singalong, featuring 37 of the choir's members.

Members have been meeting up and singing via Zoom, performing music from hit movie Sister Act, a VE Day singalong, a night devoted to the music of Neil Diamond and many more.
