I'm glad that I discovered the Spirit of Life Youth Choir through their concert in September 2009. The whole team are enthusiastic and dedicated to their purpose of fund raising for charities by way of concerts; they also show ability to perform extremely well a wide genre of music, including premiere pieces.
