Shillong Choir Harmony

Shillong choir harmony

After mesmerising US President Barack Obama on his visit to India last year, the 16-member Shillong Chamber Choir will perform to the audience's impromptu requests at a unique concert on Thursday.

At their first public concert in Mumbai, the Meghalaya-based choir will showcase their musical skills upon the demands of the audience that will get to nominate songs of their choice.

The choir that had won the TV talent hunt show 'India's Got Talent 2' had enchanted US President Obama and First Lady Michelle at President Pratibha Patil's Presidential banquet at the Rashtrapati Bhavan.

Their work is described as eclectic, youthful, crossover music deriving inspiration from western classical greats such as Handel, Bach, Gershwin, and Mozart, other than adding a dash of popular genres such as rock, retro, regional classics, Hindi crossover and Khasi folk songs.

Catch the Choir live at the Shanmukhananda Hall, Sion East, at 8 pm on Thursday.
