Brooklyn Women's Chorus February 7, 2009

Forty women join voices, strong and sweet, to create one powerful voice for peace and justice. Founded in 1997 by Director Bev Grant, it has been growing ever since beyond its Park Slope base, welcoming women from many different backgrounds. Their repertoire ranges from South African freedom songs to socially relevant songs by contemporary American songwriters like Garth Brooks, Jackson Brown, Pat Humphries and Bev Grant herself. Topics range from freedom and justice to peace, resistance and women's labor history. No auditions necessary! It is Bev's contention that everyone can sing, and the proof is in the performances.
