Essex, UK β Saturday 1st November 2025 β What an incredible day it was at The Essex Choir Exchange, as more than 250 BIG Singers from across Essex, Kent, London, and The Midlands came together for a full day of energy, laughter, and unforgettable singing. π΅π«
The event began with a powerful start as participants learned a brand-new arrangement of βI Look To Youβ by Whitney Houston, specially arranged by Howard Francis. The songβs message of hope and strength couldnβt have been more fitting, and every BIG Singer poured their heart into each note with passion and unity. β€οΈπΆ
In true BIG Sing style, the energy didnβt stop there! The choirs went on to record their vocals at impressive speed, filling the room with excitement and focus. The atmosphere was electric β‘ β proof once again that ordinary people can achieve extraordinary things when they sing together. π
And then came the highlight of the dayβ¦ TARYN CHARLES, the sensational Golden Buzzer star from Britainβs Got Talent, joined the choir to lend her powerhouse vocals to the track! ππ€ Taryn shared her inspiring story, offered performance tips, and praised the choirβs sound, energy, and unity β a true honour for everyone involved.
βThe Essex Choir Exchange was a perfect celebration of what The BIG Sing stands for β community, inspiration, and the joy of making music together,β said Gemma Francis, Director of The BIG Sing. βTo see so many singers come together with such passion and positivity was truly special.β β¨
