- The Stay At Home Choir presents 'Locus Iste' by Gareth Malone, performed by 1500 singers from around the world, accompanied by Gareth Malone on piano and Gabriella Swallow on cello.
'Locus Iste' was specially written by Gareth Malone for the Stay At Home Choir to perform. This moving but optimistic piece is a new setting of a traditional Latin text used to consecrate churches: "locus iste a Deo factus est (this place was made by God)". Written during lockdown, the song inspires us to find the sacred in our everyday spaces.
Our global choir took part in the 'Locus Iste' project over four weeks in April-May 2021. This final video is the culmination of online rehearsals, masterclasses, and global socials led by Gareth Malone, choirmaster Graham Bier, and Stay At Home Choir co-founders Tori Longdon and Jamie Wright.

First joined you for GBHC, great to be able to work with you again with SAHC. Can't wait to hear this, such a beautiful piece.
Can't believe you didn't have more of a preview than we all did!
I’m really looking forward to this piece that brought together two of the brightest silver linings of the last year, Gareth Malone and our beloved SAHC! The trailer sounds divine :)
And it didn't disappoint. Even though I can't really sing at the moment, I have so enjoyed the sessions in the GBHC and SAHC. True saviours of the last hard year, thank you Gareth, Tori, Jamie and all!
🧡🙏🎼Thank you Gareth, SAHC team & my fellow singers! Locus Iste is a balm to my soul in stressful times. A beautiful project to have been a part of & I’m so proud to be among the semichorus singers. May we all be safe, well & singing! 🧡🧡🎼🎼
In 4K, for those with BIG monitors or TVs ! Really excellent production - worth waiting for.
Thank you everyone for the tremendous joy shared in this project. By singing with you all, I more than ever felt part of a great planet that is worth cherishing and protecting. My profound gratitude to our coaches Tori and Jamie and director Gareth Malone who knew how to make it a live experience, while being at home and singing along with people around the world. The result is amazing!
Anyone else hear in their heads the clicks on the guide tracks at the appropriate times? 😂
*click click click click* Looooooo...
Beautiful 👌💕👌
Can't wait to hear this. Such a special piece that brought together not only the SAHC and GBHC, but also encouraged new singers to join from across the globe. Gareth's piece was a joy to sing, I am sure the end product will be sublime.

This is the first time I've performed with the Stay At Home Choir, and I LOVE it! I loved the music so much! It was such a pleasure to be a part of this! I'm going to continue to be a part of this.
I enjoyed singing it so much and love the outcome even more!
I'm really looking forward to this. I'm curious if the basses will sound like Gandolf arriving at sunrise in the one spot.
We can only hope so ;)
At dawn, look to the east!
Thank you all! This is beautiful and soothing. Can you please post the words? ❤️🎶
As a senior with hearing impairment I would like subtitles as the sung word is hard to understand. I was in choirs for 73 years and the blends of the music are wonderful. Thank you.
If anyone missed it: upper LEFT corner box @ 2:40 ;)
Really lovely! Congrats all, and especially Gareth Malone!
(Will the sheet music become available at some stage?)
Beautiful!
Beautiful!
