All voices are welcome to join this community song circle / informal harmony singing workshop, to co-create hope for the new year. A two-hour gathering with a break for ginger-lemon tea! With April Laurie on percussion and a vocal play warmup.
All songs are joyfully taught by call-and-response in the oral tradition; spirit-lifting songs of hope (non-religious) from the community singing movement, with harmony-rich layers that are are easy to learn by ear. All voices are welcome regardless of background - it’s about joy and connection, not perfection.
