Ndị ukwe nke Hard Knocks

In 2005 FremantleMedia Australia producer Jason Stephens brought the idea of ​​a television series called Choir of Hard Knocks to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.  In an interview with Australian news from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, Stephens said "I will always be interested in musicians. Living in Melbourne at the time in 2005 the homelessness problem was more obvious, I think  . I thought it would be a fun thing to put those two ideas together to see if we could make a chorus out of homeless and troubled people." ABC and Fremantle chose Reclink,  a charity that has worked with the homeless in the past, such as a charity that will work on television and work with singer Jonathon Welch

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation's five-part TV series of the same name, aired weekly from May 2007 and released two albums, Choir of Hard Knocks: Voice of RecLink (26 May 2007), which reached No.  21 on the ARIA Albums Chart, with Songs of Hope and Inspiration (7 December 2007), which reached No.  39. A DVD of the series also titled, Choir of Hard Knocks: Voice of RecLink, in August.  The second series in November 2007 followed the choir preparing for a concert at the Sydney Opera House.  In April 2009 the Choir of Hope and Inspiration replaced the choir after a falling out between Welch and RecLink

The Choir of Hard Knocks is the brainchild of Jason Stephens of FremantleMedia Australia in association with the charity Reclink, a not-for-profit community organization that provides services to those experiencing social and economic difficulties.  [1] Their name refers to the phrase, the school of hard knocks: learning by living, not by the classroom.  Jonathon Welch, a former tenor with Opera Australia who previously owned a choir, the Sydney Street Choir, was cast as the choirmaster.

Welch studied with a group of homeless men in Montreal in late 1999 and formed a choir of homeless men for a TV project - the Sydney Street Choir - in 2001. [1] [2] [3] Stephens and  he, FremantleMedia Australia, created ABC TV's five-part documentary series, Choir of Hard Knocks, after discussing the idea of ​​chronicling the formation and growth of a choir in Melbourne.  [4] In 2005 Stephens also learned about the Montreal band and convinced Welch to join the band as music director and choirmaster.

[2] Welch canvassed other charities for funds and support to promote the renewal.  the first of the chorus.  [3] After six weeks of rehearsals, their first performance took place in October 2016. [1] Bridget McManus of The Age, said, "the timing may not have been perfect, the singer and  -shook a little, and the man with the hair on his back had a tendency to repeat the last words of each line, but the enthusiasm was contagious. In front of the group, by the Flinders Street station,  stood the spiritual guide to whom all the singing eyes were focused. improved in spite of the chaos of the peak season."  [1] As of May 2007, the choir has approximately 50 members.

The band raised money, at first, to record a CD for individual promotion and sales, by driving around town.  They also performed a fundraising concert at the Melbourne Auditorium on 7 March 2007. [1] [2] [3] For the performance, they were supported by the Melbourne Gay and Lesbian Chorus and the Sydney Street Choir.  [3] Broadcasts of the weekly television series began in early May 2007.
