Dear Julie
A quick note to thank you very much for your outstanding presentation to our conference last week. The feedback has been universally positive and it seems that people actually enjoyed having a singalong as part of it! I also hope that you will get some new business from the event because, having been part of the Wellington Orpheus for years, there’s no doubt that choirs benefit residents (and everyone).
I would be grateful if you could send me a copy of your presentation please as the technician didn’t actually keep a copy.
Thanks once again for your part in making our event the success it was.
Kind regards
John Collyns

Singing in retirement complexes generates powerful effects for the participants. My research into those self-reported benefits give strong participant voice, and unique stories which all point to the physical, psychological, and emotional benefits of group singing.
