Bronx Choir, Montefiore Melodies, will bring together people recovering from strokes or other neurological disorders for the first time in two years on Friday, Dec. 2. The choir will meet in person and sing songs of holiday cheer.
Led by speech pathologist, Mehak Noorani, the singers will work to improve their vocal clarity and coordination as they play with tambourines and maracas. The choir is a place of community, helping people build confidence, socialize, and feel joy during their recovery.
The event takes place on Friday Dec. 2 from 12:30 p.m. to 1 p.m. at Montefiore Moses Campus, Tishman Learning Center Room 4, 111 E 210th St, The Bronx, NY 10467.

Welcome to the Norwood News, a bi-weekly community newspaper that primarily serves the northwest Bronx communities of Norwood, Bedford Park, Fordham and University Heights. Through our Breaking Bronx blog, we focus on news and information for those neighborhoods, but aim to cover as much Bronx-related news as possible. Founded in 1988 by Mosholu Preservation Corporation, a not-for-profit affiliate of Montefiore Medical Center, the Norwood News began as a monthly and grew to a bi-weekly in 1994. In September 2003 the paper expanded to cover University Heights and now covers all the neighborhoods of Community District 7. The Norwood News exists to foster communication among citizens and organizations and to be a tool for neighborhood development efforts. The Norwood News runs the Bronx Youth Journalism Heard, a journalism training program for Bronx high school students.
