Singing Together to Beat Loneliness | Dublin News

from Dublin News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Every weekday morning in Beijing’s parks, a choir of seniors over sixty-five gathers to sing patriotic, romantic, and nostalgic tunes — more than just music, it’s their lifeline. Formed in 2010, the Beijing Zuojiazhuang Xinlianxin Singing Group fights loneliness in a nation grappling with an aging population, shrinking families, and urban isolation. For these members, singing isn’t a pastime — it’s purpose, connection, and the reason to rise each day instead of watching TV alone. Their voices echo not just melodies, but resilience against the quiet crisis of elder solitude in modern China. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
