Ysaÿe Barnwell
A community sing is an opportunity for anyone who wants to sing
with other people to come and do
just that. They are conducted in
the “oral tradition” so you don’t
have to read music or have any
musical training. We begin in a
fun easy way and become a choir
of uncommon voices singing in 4
to 6 part harmony and raising the
roof.
