Abstract: |
Every week a unique group of people gather together in a large hall in Bristol in the South West of England. They are mostly over the age of 65. Some are in wheelchairs or hobbling with the help of walking sticks, others are physically lively and vigorous. Some seem withdrawn and mute, others garrulous or confused. All these people have one thing in common: Alzheimer's Disease. But, even though their memories are failing, they also possess an unquenchable desire to go on singing, and it is that they have come to do. |
