Choir! Choir! Choir! of 500+ Sings David Bowie's Space Oddity at the AGO
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
A collective shock was felt when David Bowie passed this past Sunday, a couple days after his 69th birthday. We immediately teamed up with the Art Gallery of Ontario to pay tribute by singing our original arrangement of Space Oddity with 500+ singers. It all went down last night in Walker Court and here's how it sounded, looked, and felt. RIP Starman: to say we'll miss you doesn't even scratch the surface. Recorded in Toronto January 16th by Choir! Choir! Choir!. We usually meet Tuesdays and Wednesdays. There are no auditions and everyone is welcome to join.

FANTAZIJA...

My 1st date with my boyfriend, JoJo was going to the AGO to see the David Bowie exhibit in October, 2013 (my idea). While it was certainly my best 1st date ever, (& yes, we're still together), it marked my beginning of my journey as I explore so much of what "was Bowie". I was so impressed with his art, whether it was in his music, his album covers, his costumes in concert, his lyrics, WOW! Prior to the AGO visit, I was not so deeply aware of David Bowie's artistry. I will always feel humbled looking at his artistic output to the world. If I can give even 10% to the world, in comparison to David Bowie's 100%, I will feel like I've given my all. p.s. I was brought to tears as I watched on-line this singing tribute to Bowie at the AGO. I'm sure his spirit was with you all on that blessed night. Thank you for sharing on-line this outpouring of love for an amazing artist. I almost felt like I was there.

We get to sing with CCC 1/20/17 in Portland! Hope this is one song! (Prince's "When Doves Cry" would be lovely, too!)

Listen it again, and again, and again 😀👌

This is one of my favorite songs, and this is a good arrangement. Did anyone else notice the first chorus, when half of the people sang the second chorus for part of it?
-
the fact that Bowie's music made 500 people come together & share a creative moment in his honor is beautiful.

Hey there, where did you get the sheet music for this/ are you in possession of it? I know a fellow choir that would love to perform it
