The Pink Singers are the oldest LGBTQ+ choir in Europe (if you’re to believe there’s ever been a heterosexual choir), but what makes up a choir?
In this episode, Olivia Doust, a singing teacher by day, Pinkie by night, looks at the music that has made the Pink Singers sing, and how it’s been shaped by the treatment of LGBTQ+ people in society. But with their current musical director, Murray, leaving, and having only ever had cis male musical directors, will the music change tempo?
Sing it Pink! is an Aunt Nell production for the Pink Singers. You can find out more about the Pink Singers at https://www.pinksingers.co.uk/ or follow them on Instagram or X @pinksingers.
The theme music was composed by Simon Pearson with lyrics by Jaie Monroe. The artwork was by Fredde Lanka.
