A song-cycle for our times – live singing, dance and poetry – Acapellies Community Choir take you on a musical journey of grief, healing, togetherness and hope

The Gratitude Project is a sung piece comprising of a series of new and traditional polyphonic songs which move through the cycles of Lamentation, Healing and Gratitude.

We have all experienced a great deal of fear, worry and loneliness over the past 12+ months and this musical recital is designed to address those collective feelings and allow catharsis and recognition.

Acapellies Community Choir, based in Stroud, will perform these songs unaccompanied and without any amplification. They will also perform the poetry together in interludes of choral speaking.

There will be periods of silence to signify the cultural emptiness we have all experienced.

The soundscape will be interpreted visually by dancers.

Each performance will be 30 minutes in length.

The project will engage local people, both as performers and as audience.
