At the end of March with lockdown upon us, Chorus members were banished to their spare rooms with a laptop, ipad, headphones and their mobiles. We were to appear virtually on the Brighton Festival at Home site with a recording of No Rack Can Torture Me as one of the many performing bodies whose concerts had been cancelled. Music arrived by email from James with exhortations to follow the backing track, record ourselves on our phones and send back to him, preferably with a video. The results, despite our individual misgivings about our singing and videoing abilities, were then woven together by James to be uploaded to YouTube.
