What are some good songs to sing at a nursing home?
4/5 people. 2 male basses, 2 female sopranos, 1 female alto. I would prefer mostly solos, but a duet or two, and even a song we can all sing together would be good. Musicals, classical, etc. Please help. :)

You should play Taps

Any oldies song would do, something like Roy Orbison - Unchained Melody.

Oldies. Stuff the residents remember from their youth. Broadway tunes from the 40s or 50s. Big band or swing.
