As the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic were lingering in our communities, the largest virtual choir in Ottawa’s history, held hands virtually and sang Walk Hand in Hand in the spirit of hope for a better future. Some of the choristers were familiar with this song through performances by Andy Williams and Tony Martin, but DeCesare’s arrangement provided a beautiful unique challenge as the choir learned this song during the 6 week rehearsal period from March-May 2021.
