Uniting voices in harmony and community

StreetSong MN is an exciting choir started in 2014 which aims to unite voices for harmony and community. Comprised of persons ‘experienced’ in homelessness – i.e. persons currently or formerly homeless, and those who care about them, this choral collaborative is an enterprise of Align Minneapolis. StreetSong is directed by Laura Clapp and Bex Gaunt.

StreetSong draws on the experiences, hopes and aspirations of its members to produce a choral experience promoting personal fulfillment and the development of community. A meal is available prior to rehearsal, and bus tokens are provided to remove any financial obstacle which may be a deterrent to participation.  Rehearsals take place on Mondays at Central Lutheran Church from 12:30 – 1:45pm, just after the community meal. Come Sing with Us!

Through its music, StreetSong MN presents an opportunity for engagement in the cause of ending homelessness. The choir has appeared at the DCEH’s Unite to End Homelessness events, the Central Library in downtown Minneapolis, the Mall of America as part of its Holiday Music Festival, the annual Homeless Memorial March and Service and at various churches and mosque. In April 2016, StreetSong MN performed with the award winning vocal ensemble Cantus at the Ordway Center for the Performing Arts. Currently the choir is collaborating with Voces8 from the UK as part of a year-long collaboration between Voces8 and some Minneapolis choirs.
