Over the past two weeks, 1000 singers from across the globe - professional and amateur alike - have answered Judy Collins’ call to sing “Amazing Grace” with her as a sign of solidarity in this unprecedented time. This new version of Judy’s historic recording is out today. Alan Cumming, Judith Owen, Steve Earle, Madeleine Peyroux, Mandolin Orange, Tift Merritt are just some of the 1000 singers who participated in this Global Virtual Chorus event - plus internationally known choirs including The Sixteen, New York Choral Society and Soweto Gospel Choir.
Every person who recorded themselves singing along is featured on the recording released today, who were encouraged to record audio and video of themselves singing via the Global Virtual Choir website.
“Amazing Grace” has become a source of comfort during these unprecedented times with Judy's version being played to Charing Cross Hospital in London, which received a swell of emotional outpouring on social media and over 5 millions views and the now famed priest of Notting Hill, Pat Allerton, playing Judy’s version of the song for his sermons on the streets.
