Moon River - Open Arts Community Choir as part of BBC1's 'Last Choir Standing' 2008

In this clip the Open Arts community Choir famously make the judge, Sharon D.Clarke '..cry tears of musical joy!'

The song 'Moon River' originally made famous in the film 'Breakfast at Tiffany's with Audrey Hepburn.

The soloists in this song are Andrea Hope and Alan Beattie.

Inclusive is the word which probably best describes Open Arts Community Choir. It features people with disabilites and those without, from every section of the community in Northern Ireland. The age range is extensive, from seventeen to over seventy but most importantly members are united by their love of singing.

The choir is directed in Belfast Northern Ireland by Beverley Whyte

Well done !

The Jazzpotes, an a cappella vocal jazz choir just like yours in Lyon (France) sing this gorgeous song with an infinite pleasure. In the same arrangement from Steve Zegree.
