ok!choir’s 45 regular members meet weekly and sing a range of pop, rock and indie songs in four or five part harmonies. The choir formed in 2018 to give members of the Berlin Pop Choir and the Berlin Pop Ensemble a place where they could continue to sing together after the sad and untimely death of conductor Lyndsey Cockwell. Lyndsey instilled in her choirs such a great love of singing, and of the particular community she had built for them to sing in, that many members of the choirs felt that the best way to honour Lyndsey’s memory was to continue to sing together, as she had taught them to do.

ok!choir continues to practice many of the principles of good choiring that Lyndsey taught. We take music seriously, but ourselves less so. We aim for excellence in singing technique, but not at the expense of a good time. We believe that singing is something anyone can do with a bit of practice, and that making music shouldn’t be restricted to only those with special musical gifts and talents. We love popular music of many styles, and it brings us joy to get to know songs by some of our favourite bands and musicians on a deeper level. We want to share with our audiences the euphoria we feel when we sing together.
