London Sacred Harp
Cafè Oto, E8 3DL , [Venue Details]Starting the year the best possible way with the transcendent choral music of London Sacred Harp.
Shape note is a living tradition of community singing that uses a hymn book first published in the American South before The Civil War, The Sacred Harp. The music is sung unaccompanied in four parts with the singers seated in a square and facing inwards.
The sound is direct and raw. One by one singers step into the centre to lead a song of their choosing. There are no rehearsals and normally no performances. Singers sing for themselves and for each other.
London Sacred Harp meet weekly around the capital and welcome new singers. Although the music is religious, we are not a religious organisation and all are welcome regardless of faith and singing experience.
