“So wonderful, I got goosebumps! It was the first time for me to join a community singing and definitely not my last one. So beautiful vibes, voices, sounds and people! Even though my Internet connection allowed me to follow just a while it was so touching and the dogs also enjoyed it completely relaxed.
I will watch the recording as soon as its available. Looking forward to the next one.”

In our community song circles we sing "teaching songs", which are songs full of wisdom that are meant to be easily shared and learned. We do our song circles in Zoom and usually sing a capella (without instruments or with light instrumentation in service of the song). The songleader introduces each song and then teaches it at the pace we need, with built in pauses for you to be able to repeat the song. In Zoom, the attendee mics are mostly off, so you'll be able to sing along with the songleader wherever you are.
1.5 hours.
This was a first song circle on this platform, so we started with 90 minutes. Our virtual song circles now are usually about 1 hour long, with a bonus chance for some connection with each other at the end in break-out groups in guided discussion (about 20 minutes). Breakout rooms are not recorded, for privacy, bringing to your home or community.
You don't have to sing alone if you have friends to meet up with in person. Create your own song circle by inviting your friends to sing along with you. After all, singing is always more fun with friends!
If you are in different places, you'll each need your own account.
Singers of all levels welcome! If you don't sing professionally or believe you don't sing "well" we especially invite your curiosity! All voices are good voices.
Virtual song circles are an accessible option already, great for parents of young children, folks with limited mobility.
The content player for this recording includes an automated session transcript and English captions. You also get a document with the words to the songs.
