THROUGH THE EAR TO THE HEART ~ CONTEMPLATIVE SONG
Sing the Music of St. Hildegard of Bingen, first and third Mondays of each month, 6:45-8:15 pm in the Church
Since 2007 circles of voices have gathered in the church to explore Hildegard's music. We sing in much the same way she would have taught us, in a restful, contemplative process of listening and echoing what we hear. Everyone who enjoys singing is invited, no experience or musical training required. Drops ins and newcomers are always welcome. Please enter through the front door of the church. And please wear a mask when entering and leaving – masks are optional while we're singing, and will be available at the door if needed. Free will offerings gratefully accepted.
Twelfth century Christian mystic St. Hildegard of Bingen—visionary, healer, naturalist, poet, playwright, and spiritual conscience for her time—was also a brilliant musician and composer. Her music is beautiful, encoded with deep wisdom and insight. Singing her songs together brings us into community and gives us a wonderful way to sing praise and express gratitude for being alive.
