Vincent (Starry Starry Night) virtual choir | McLean arr Emerson | Mosaic Chamber Choir

We are marking #mentalhealthawarenessweek with our new virtual choir release - an arrangement of Don McLean’s ‘Vincent’. Also known as 'Starry Starry Night', McLean pays tribute to Vincent van Gogh, an incredible artist who also suffered with mental health problems. Music and art have a hugely positive impact on well-being, yet this beautiful, melodic piece offers a reminder too of the challenges so many of us face, and the importance of looking after each other. Content warning: the lyrics of this piece reference van Gogh's mental health problems and suicide.
