This registration includes all three workshops for the day (Rhythm for Choir Masterclass; Singing for Resistance & Resilience; Drumming and Spirituality) and a provided lunch.
An energetic, fully participatory workshop designed to help choirs better understand rhythm in the mind, body, and spirit. With Matt’s guidance, the choir will explore the theories and practices of West African, South Indian, and European perspectives of rhythm. This is as much rhythm training as you can possibly fit into a 90 minute masterclass! (lunch not included; option to add below)
A strong movement needs strong music. We’ll share contemporary songs for protests, rallies, and organizing. We’ll share songs that can be sung in the streets without accompaniment, songs for organizing meetings that bring the energy you need, and songs for community that ground us for the long haul. (lunch not included, option to add below)
A chance for people of all skill levels to participate in hands-on rhythm-making. We’ll tour instruments from around the world and experience the connection of community music-making through different activities, stories, and discussions. We’ll also look at how rhythm and music intersect with Unitarian Universalist values. Bring your own drum if you have one – for those who don’t, enough will be provided.
Don't add lunch if you are registering for the full workshop. Sandwich bar (bread, meats, cheeses, condiments, hummus, lettuce, tomato, pickles), salad greens & dressings, and chips.
