Q-O2

Sacred Harp is a tradition of shape-note music originating in 19th century Appalachia. “Shape-note” emerged as a way of teaching people without any formal musical literacy, and without any shared doctrinal commitments, to sing quickly and in large quantities. Following on from their first Beginner’s Beginning Sacred Harp workshops at Q-O2 and at the Performing Arts Forum (PAF) last summer, Francesca Hawker and Marialena Marouda are instigating a series of Sacred Harp sessions Brussels: as beginners for beginners! Everyone is welcome, whether you’re a keen singer or have never sung before, registration via hello@bxlsacredharp.be.
