Five of the foremost international performers of sacred song celebrate the power of the voice in worship in Christian, Hindu, Jewish, Muslim and Sikh sites of worship across the city.

Dya is considered to be a master interpreter of Sikh hymns (Shabads) combining the Sikh mystical tradition of worship with contemporary musical insights and influences. And Lopa shares in the life of the Manchester Sikh community and speaks to festival goers experiencing Sikh worship for the first time. Producer: Caroline Donne.
