Some youth Beatwaves interviewed disclosed that they preferred music that would make them dance and that choral music sometimes was boring. Nonetheless, there is a group of youth who have come together to form a Choir which has made a mark both at home and abroad. The Winneba Youth Choir, known to be the number one choral music group in the country was founded in May 1989, under the patronage of Mr. George Mensah-Essilfie and Mr. John Francis Arthur-Yamoah (Paa John). The Choir has progressed steadily to the extent that it is now recognized as the most outstanding youth Choir of the nation.

It is inter-denominational. Members of the Choir are between the ag...    less
