Come Sing!
Rev. Erika Hewitt, the UUA's Minister of Worship Arts, and Paul Vasile, Executive Director of Music That Makes Community, invite you to come play, sing, and learn with us on Tuesday, January 10, 2023 in a live, hour-long webinar:
1:00 p.m. Eastern noon Central 11 a.m. Mountain 10 a.m. Pacific
Paul Vasile
Paul is the Executive Director of Music That Makes Community
In this Zoom event, we'll discover the joy and possibilities of paperless singing (yes: even though we'll be muted). Our twin focus will be sharing new, empowering musical content and weaving that song into worship in creative ways.
Advance registration is required: register here .
Though each registrant will receive our Zoom link, we encourage you—as you're able, following health protocols—to view this webinar with others so that you can enjoy singing rounds and canons together. In that case, only one person from the group needs to register.
A recording of the webinar will be published on this page in February 2023.
FAQS
What or who is Music That Makes Community? Music That Makes Community is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to help people connect and learn through singing. They do that by teaching a practice of paperless song-leading grounded in a theology of welcome and generosity for the benefit of musicians, clergy, congregants, students and lay leaders who want to use the practice to enrich and enliven their worship and community life. Many UU professional religious leaders have attended MTMC events, and rave about them.
What is paperless singing? It's the teaching and leading of group singing in a way that fosters listening, connection, and engaging with the present moment. Paul and other MTMC leaders embody a faith-based teaching methodology that invites full engagement from the community.
What if I can't be there in the middle of a Tuesday? We've got you! "Singing for Liberation" will be recorded, and that video will end up on this page in February 2023.
Is it free? WorshipWeb is offering this webinar as a service of your UUA, but we invite participants to make a freewill donation before or after the event. (Please write "singing for liberation" in the comments on our donation page.)
What if I'm not a musician or a singer? We hope you'll register... because you're included. This event isn't designed for professional musicians, but rather for anyone who's interested in how singing and chanting can enrich our faith-based activities (including protests and vigils).
