Wherever You Are - Military Wives - Piano Solo

Me playing this year's Christmas Number 1 - Wherever You Are - by the Military Wives on piano. The Military Wives choir grew its fanbase through the BBC series The Choir: Military Wives, led by choir master Gareth Malone.

This song was written by Paul Mealor (who also composed for the Royal Wedding) for The Royal British Legion's Festival of Remembrance. The lyrics are taken from letters to and from the wives to their husbands in Afghanistan.

I love this song, and worked it out by ear. Hope you like it!

Lovely :) I would have gone for Absus4 instead of Bbmin in the verses, but we must have different musical ears :P Well done, it's a great version.

@PippaMacMusic Ha ha, thanks - you may be right, I don't learn much by ear and I think some of the chords were a "er, well, close enough!"

@mattwalkerpianist Awww thanks :) Yes the Choirs still going strong, we have an album out on the 5th March and a new single on the way! Its all very exciting :) But Gareth is now in America starting something new so we have a new choirmaster! But we still get to talk to him a lot :D Thanks again for covering the song xXx
