Homeless choir sings for the streets


If you walk past the Pitt Street Methodist church in Auckland on a Tuesday night you will notice two things – the beautiful stained glass windows backlit by the church’s lights, and the harmonious sounds coming from the building.

Tuesday night is practice night for the church’s accomplished choir.

But there is more than one choir practicing in the 150-year-old parish.

Down in the church’s austere basement, another group of singers is rehearsing an eclectic mix of music ranging from waiata, to reggae, to pop songs.

They are New Zealand’s first street choir.
