Praying Twice
Choral Explorations
Tuesdays: September 24, October 22, November 26
10am - 11:45am
The primary content is an exploration of the diverse and rich music created by Ron Klusmeier, who, alongside his talented writing partners, has astonishingly produced over 1,000 hymns, songs, and choral anthems. In this engaging session, music will be taught and sung that reflects a liberal theology, offering participants an opportunity to deepen their understanding and appreciation of these works. Furthermore, background information and intriguing stories about the authors, as well as the unique circumstances associated with the creation of this inspiring music, will be shared to enhance the experience. While group participation in the music-making is actively encouraged, it’s also entirely acceptable to simply engage and connect by listening attentively.
Participants
Choir singers, directors, musicians, clergy and any others interested in music, especially in the context of church services.
