Greek choir has different voices, as choirs are made up. In our case these voices do not mean the tone of voices but different topics and text fragments. We aim to formulate a spoken canon throughout our texts and answers. Members of the Greek choir will be the participants of the PhD in practice program and those who are attending the Politics of Memory workshop – no worries, Greek choir is a speaking choir, not a singing one.
