Central Marin Singers Drop-In Choir -- Summer '24 Season
Event description
*** Thank you to the 65+ singers who sang with us during our drop-in Winter Season '23, and the 35 members of our Spring '24 Joyful Voices Chorus community choir series! ***
*** TL;DR: Our weekly drop-in choir will start up again in the summer on Wednesday nights; for the moment, we've scheduled only a SPECIAL EVENING with Guest Songleader Shireen Amini joining Marv on June 5th. Click the orange Get Tickets button to reserve your seat. ***
Do you love to sing? While you're driving, on a walk, or in the shower? Then this drop-in choir is for you! Our choir is:
- Easy to join in and sing because singing experience is never needed, all songs are taught by ear, there's no music to read, and you never have to have attended a previous evening
- Non-audition, non-performative, and anti-perfectionistic
- Welcoming, accepting, and inclusive. We create a safe, non-judgmental, collaborative space that's nurturing and supportive for all, especially if you're feeling nervous.
- SO. MUCH. FUN.
So...what kinds of songs do we sing?
- We sing contemporary, non-religious, community-singing songs -- unison songs, chants, rounds, layer songs, and 2-, 3-, and 4-part harmony songs.
- Songs are selected for their ability to rejuvenate, soothe, uplift and inspire!
- Feel free to check out our YouTube page or our website for videos and audio of us singing together, and our Song Library, which has every song we've ever sung.
Here are some of the comments from singers in past seasons:
- "The love and connection and magic in the room last night filled my spirit. Our voices were amazing!"
- "Marv has an easy upbeat teaching style that enables quick grasp of
the words and melodies. Good vibe with everyone. Simple but engaging
songs."
- "I left feeling so nurtured by the wonderful camaraderie we all had with each other, and by your way of teaching us these heartfelt and loving songs that are filled with positivity and hope!"
- "Thank you for reawakening the love of singing in me."
- "I loved it, can't wait for more!"
The details:
- We're in our usual huge Duncan Hall auditorium space at the church in San Anselmo Wednesday evening, June 5th, 7:00-8:30, with the great Shireen Amini joining Marv as Guest Songleader, with subsequent Summer Season dates TBD (watch this space or our website or join Marv's email list if you haven't already). We'll have some fans/doors/windows open for airflow and the massive heating system going to keep us warm.
- Our COVID policy is required reading before you attend.
- Sliding scale cost: $25 Supporting, $20 Standard, $15 Supported, kids under 18 (with accompanying adult) free.
- All voices are welcome. We have many new singers with us every week!
Come and co-create the magic of singing in community! Reserve your seat by clicking the orange Get Tickets button -- I hope to sing with you on June 5th with the return -- for the 3rd year in a row! -- of Shireen Amini!
