Young@Heart
is a New England senior
citizens chorus that has
delighted audiences
worldwide with their
covers of songs by
everyone from The Clash to
Coldplay. Based in
Northampton,
Massachusetts, the group
is made up of two dozen
spirited seniors who
specialize in
reinterpreting rock, punk
and R & B classics
from a unique perspective.
Their lineup includes
former schoolteachers,
executives, doctors and
food service workers, and
the chorus is guided by
their longtime director
Bob Cilman. With less than
two months to go until a
one night only concert in
their hometown, the
performers struggle with
the new lyrics and
unfamiliar melodies of
seven new songs. During
their thrice weekly
rehearsals, they gradually
take possession of music
ranging from R&B
classics like Allen
Toussaint's "Yes We
Can Can" to
Coldplay's emotionally
powerful ballad "Fix
You," upending
assumptions about old age,
love, sex and death.
RATING:
PG for some mild language
and thematic elements.
RUNNNG TIME: 1 hr.
48 min.
DIRECTOR:
Stephen Walker
STARS: Young @
Heart Chorus
