Oasis One World Choir welcomes people seeking sanctuary in Wales. Through songs and dances of peace and solidarity their infectious optimism breaks down barriers to support everyone to feel safe and valued.
At a time when people seeking sanctuary face an increasingly hostile environment, OOWC aim to deflect the pain through song writing, singing and performing together, sharing their thoughts and providing hope. They also take their performances on the road, sharing their unique wealth of culture.
OOWC passionately create music for beauty, human rights, social justice and wellbeing.
‘The Oasis One World choir unites people through music and embodies the spirit of welcoming all. The choir plays its part in making Wales a Nation of Sanctuary’. Jane Hutt, Minister for Social Justice .
About the artists...
Oasis One World Choir welcomes people seeking sanctuary in Cardiff and the wider community. They aim to learn from those who connect with them – sharing, growing and forming together. Their choir is a lifeline for many people who are faced with restarting their lives in a new country, often in a language that’s completely new to them. Music transcends these barriers, and the choir allows people to make new friends and build community together.
