KAA Choir on the BBC One Show
by Vashti Turner on March 9, 2019 in Creativity Music Performance and Creative Arts
On Tuesday 5th March the KAA choir appeared on The One Show on BBC1 with Gareth Malone OBE and alongside the cast of Derry Girls.
The KAA choir performed “We’re Stronger” by Tyra ahead of the new two-part BBC2 documentary series The Choir. If you missed the choir’s beautiful performance you can watch it now on BBC iPlayer here.
In the BBC2 series, Choirmaster Gareth Malone is invited to help staff and pupils at KAA prepare a concert to mark the return to our original building. Having spent the last academic year on a temporary site following the Grenfell Tower fire, KAA Principal, David Benson, had the idea to stage an ambitious performance to take place in our own school theatre.
The two-part series will air on BBC2 at 9pm on Monday 11th March and Monday 18th March.
It was beautiful, very emotional and honest. Best wishes to Adil, Irene and all the other working so hard.
The KAA and Garath Malone program The Choir, recently shown on BBC2 was wonderful. Everyone involved should be very very proud. My question is, will there be anyway of seeing the whole concert, maybe on line or on a DVD. Thank you all so much. Love Robert and Helen Evans.
The song on the show is amazing and needs to be released and everyone needs to hear it.
Great academy
Achal, what a brilliant idea to release a single by the children of KAA! It would be a great way to raise funds for the Intrepidus Trust too. Everyone I have spoken to about The Choir tv doc has been so blown away by the amazing children at KAA. You are all an inspiration xx
I’m overwhelmed with emotion after watching the KAA choir with Gareth Malone. The school and all the children are absolutely amazing and should be extremely proud of themselves. Adil, you are an amazing young man, with a beautiful voice. Best wishes to everyone at the school for a brighter future.
I was moved to tears…your choir was so inspiring. I loved watching this programme.
All members of the choir were amazing.
Please release the song, it will definitely be a hit.
Good luck to all the children at KAA keep remembering your friends, and keep smiling
I really value your work, Great post.
