Featuring Lucky, a transgender artist who has previously worked on Coke Studio, Chorus of Change is an electrifying performance mixing contemporary and traditional music. The transgender community has a long history of song, music and dance within its culture and this performance offers technical innovation in the form of advanced electronic production techniques, including real-time audio mixing and synchronization. Ahsan Pervaiz Mehdi, a renowned producer and multi-instrumentalist from Lahore, Pakistan, will serve as the Sound Producer for this initiative. With a diverse musical background and notable collaborations, including Coke Studio, Velo Sound Station and Nescafé Basement, Ahsan's expertise will elevate the performance, delivering a seamless and immersive auditory experience for performers and audiences alike. Zara Madni has been previously featured in WOW and following the success of her performance which had visually impaired girls from Ida Rieu, Zara has the expertise and compassion to bring different voices, styles and mediums on the stage. She embraces the ethos of WOW and ensures that her programming is inclusive and diverse. The curatorial team considered Hadiqa Kiyani but she has been featured at WOW before. Meesha Shafi won't be in the country on the festival dates and is also out of budget. Shazia Manzoor is not well known among younger audiences hence not a good pull. This performance has the potential to cement WOW as a platform for featuring voices from marginalized groups
