Group singing has been central to social movements throughout history. It is how communities show solidarity and gather momentum for worthy causes.
Experience the excitement of writing and singing your own freedom and peace songs with musician, writer, and educator Terry Jenoure. In this workshop, we follow a simple formula: Drawing inspiration from traditional forms such as call and response, rounds, and other styles, we collaborate to create our own joyful works and then we sing them as a group. Through collaborative brainstorming, we discover themes, lyrics, melodies, and rhythms. Then, we place all of our passionate words onto the page and experience the unsurpassed power of group singing.
These songs highlight our deep desires for a peaceful world and equal treatment for all creatures. Our very own peace and freedom songs nourish us and lift us high. This is a workshop that merely calls for passion. No prior singing experience required. Every voice is welcome.
