Military Wives Choir

 

This video is taken from a British series where a guy called Gareth Malone takes a group of people and turns them into a choir.

This time he's taken a group of military wives whose husbands are all in Afghanistan and turned them into a choir.

Gareth looks about 16yrs old but is actually in his mid-30s and is the Choir Master for the London Symphony Orchestra.

They wrote a song based on excerpts from letters written by the couples whilst apart and this is the beautiful result.
The single is out in the UK and thousands have been pre-ordered and all the money raised is going to military charities. 

 

 

Enjoy!
