Feast of Singing with John Harrison and Peter and Mary Alice Amidon

Past event
May 28, 2016, 10 AM to 4 PM

On Saturday, May 28, join Peter & Mary Alice Amidon and John Harrison for a festive day of singing at the Unitarian Church of Montpelier, 130 Main St., Montpelier, VT. We will sing choral arrangements of classic gospel, original gospel-inspired songs, traditional folk songs, songs by composers steeped in the oral tradition, and shape note music. All songs will be especially suited to community, church, hospice, high school & college choirs, family & friends singing gatherings. The Amidons are versatile and widely respected performing and teaching artists who for the past twenty years have dedicated themselves to traditional song, dance and storytelling. John Harrison leads the Montpelier Community Gospel choir and has worked with Village Harmony for 17 years. He brings to his teaching a deep love of choral singing and its power to create community, as well as a lot of humor. We’ll sing from 10:00-4:00 with tea breaks and an hour for lunch (BYO or enjoy Montpelier's wide selection of restaurants). The cost for the day is $40 if you register in advance, and $50 at the door.
