Middlebury Shape-Note Singing resumes on Sunday, October 7, from 1:00 to 3:00 PM in the Mitchell Green Lounge, McCullough Student Center, Old Chapel Road, Middlebury College.
Shape-Note or Sacred Harp singing is an American traditional style of four-part, a cappella, social and spiritual, community-based singing. The music is powerful, moving, sublime and raucous, ancient and haunting. It has been called "18th century a cappella heavy metal" and "bluegrass Gregorian chanting."
Mitchell Green Lounge is located on the top floor of the McCullough Student Center and is accessible by stairs and elevator. Parking is available on Old Chapel Road and adjacent parking lots. Enter from Rte. 125/College St. or Rte. 30/S. Main St.
We sing from the Sacred Harp Song Book. Loaner books are available. All are welcome.
