Rebecca Lolosoli visits the ChorusThe Brooklyn Women's Chorus is a community chorus that was formed in October 1997 by Park Slope resident and musician, Bev Grant. The chorus has a repertoire ranging from South African freedom songs to socially relevant songs by contemporary American songwriters like Garth Brooks, Jackson Browne, Pat Humphries and Bev Grant, herself. Topics range from freedom and justice, to peace, resistance, and women's labor history.

There are no auditions necessary to join the Brooklyn Women's Chorus, only a strong desire to sing. It is Bev's contention that everyone can sing, and the proof is in the rousing performances by the chorus.

The Brooklyn Women's Chorus communicates with a joyful voice, sure to uplift anyone who hears them.

Across Oceans and Cultures Women Unite in Brooklyn

Oct 18, 2006- After singing about her for a year, on October 11 the Brooklyn Women's chorus finally met Rebecca Lolosoli. The story of Lolosoli's Umoja village in Kenya had inspired director Bev Grant to write the song, "Where Women Rule." Wearing an elaborate bead collar and traditional robes, Lolosoli listened with tears in her eyes as the Chorus sang her song.
