Guiding Principles:
In keeping with the Choir's aim and vision, a number of guiding principles are to be used, in order to ensure any music performed by registered ELM singers are fit for purpose. These guiding principals are for the reference of contributing composers in shaping their submitted music and lyrics. Additionally they may be of general interest to singers as a means of deepening their connection with the meaning of the music and lyrics.
These principles fall into two categories, namely; therapeutic and artistic.
