The group performs “Truly Brave,” a mashup of Cyndi Lauper’s famous “True Colors” and Sara Bareilles’ “Brave.” The chorus started performing the song in 2014 to raise money for charity.

“SFGMC’s first virtual chorus performance is dedicated to the ‘Truly Brave’ first responders and healthcare workers on the frontlines of COVID-19,” the chorus posted with the video. “You are our heroes.”
