While the choir will be singing in Italy, high-fidelity imaging transmission and hologram technology will help the singers to interact with its sister choir, Hydrangea Choir, in Shanghai, where six concerts will take place from Dec 31 to Jan 3, 2021.

"For the past five years, the songs of the Antoniano choir have been a regular part of the New Year celebration for many audiences in China," said Liang Xiaoxia, general manager of SHCAT.

"This year, although they cannot come, we still hope to keep the experience alive, and hope that the voices of these children can bring some consolation and inspire more confidence in the face of adversity."
