For security reasons, we could not take footage but everyone who was present knows that the atmosphere was electric. An unlikely place to experience joy and community spirit, music brought together people from dramatically different backgrounds and gave them a common purpose. All proceeds go to Shelter Scotland.

The Games included twenty seven thousand singers from four hundred choirs representing seventy three countries. Dozan wa Awtar, under the leadership of its Founder and Director Shireen Abu Khader, competed in two categories: Scenic Folklore and Mixed choirs; singing Arabic songs in both and receiving a Gold Diploma in each category. This is the first time Jordan is represented in an international choral competition. On this occasion, Shireen Abu Khader expressed her immense pride at this accomplishment and international recognition and commended the continuous efforts of the singers which led to this achievement.

Change requires a powerful idea. A simple idea can change the course of history and what happens next in the USA will affect every corner of the planet. “Make America Love Again” must be the message in 2020. “There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured by what is right with America”. We ask you to adopt Make America Love Again as an anthem for 2020 . Music with words moves us more than arguments. “Make America Love Again” is a song that that can heal America’s soul. This is the MILLION PEOPLE FOR MALA campaign. It opens up a space for those who want more than words, it can appeal to every American. Recent history suggests the unimaginable is now the possible. Through weight of numbers, using our collective imagination, let’s make some noise in 2020. Let’s aim to hear “Make America Love Again” echoing round the USA, a message that can influence millions of individual’s perceptions and decisions. Join our campaign for 1000 choirs to sing this anthem.  less

The choir’s repertoire of sacred music ranges from the 16th to the 21st centuries, including a recently commissioned and premièred work by Roxanna Panufnik. The choir sings to a cathedral standard every week at the Sung Eucharist on Sunday and Choral evensong every fourth Sunday. It also sings at special services during the year and goes on tour each summer. Recent tours have been to Bordeaux (2014). Dordodgne/Aquitaine (2013), and Rome (2011, 2012).  less
