Rhythm & Song! Community Choir is a wonderfully eclectic bunch of people who love to sing, meet new friends, and make beautiful music together, while developing our listening and singing abilities. We walk out into the world after our weekly sessions with a greater sense of well-being and hope from the positive feelings of connection we experience when singing in harmony with others.
Singers of all abilities and stripes are welcome. If you’ve never sung in a group before, you’ll be amazed at how good we all sound under the inspired and playful leadership of local songstress Jennifer Noxon!
We sing songs in harmony, in different languages including English, from the folk, pop, and world traditions. To keep us on your toes and work our brains, there are fun vocal and rhythmic warmups every session. There is no sheet music. Short and longer songs are taught in the oral tradition of call and response. Lyrics and recorded tracks are available to those who want them. We sing until the songs are in our bones and we can sing them alone in the shower, the car, or walking around town!
New singers are welcome to come and try the first session before committing financially to make sure it is a good fit. There are limited subsidies available for those who may need it.
Finally, there are no formal performances. We do have a ‘sharing’ event with family and friends in our last seasonal session which is completely voluntary. By then, you’ll want to share what you’ve learned.
There is no Thursday evening session this fall.
