Celebrating
LEGATO Choral Exchanges

Travelling and sharing our music with each other brings so much joy and should be celebrated! Do you have a choir exchange coming up? Let us know so that we can highlight these joint concerts. Whether you are singing with another queer choir within or across borders, we would love to feature your achievements, just email us! 

LEGATO Member Choir Survey 

This year we have an additional special request for our member choirs. As a valued member of the LEGATO family, your insights are vital to help us better understand our diverse community and how we can improve our support for you.

The questionnaire covers aspects of your choir's operation, demographics, strengths, challenges and relationship with LEGATO. Your answers will directly inform our efforts to develop meaningful projects that provide practical and valuable support to all member choirs.

This will highlight the skills and strengths of our membership base and help you to connect with other choirs, fostering knowledge sharing and growing expertise across our network.

Your participation will be greatly appreciated and will help to make LEGATO an even more supportive and enriching association.

You will find the link to the questionnaire in the emails recently sent out with your annual subscription. If you can't find it, please contact us.
