Lots if singing in the springtime

[Sara Sandberg]

We can start with a singing school in Belfast: Tuesdays from now through May 19th, Sumner Roberts will be leading sessions on learning to sight read music for singing. See his notice on Facebook in the Maine Shape Note Singing group.

We now have two locations to choose from on the third Sunday of the month, so pick your geographical favorite, or alternate between the Midcoast area and Bridgton.

Sunday, April 19 - Waldoboro, The Open House of History in the 1855 Customs House, 908 Main St. Singing from 1-4pm from The Sacred Harp, 2025 ed. Loaners available. This unique iron-framed building is a vibrant singing space and the Open House of History is an interesting community space. We hope you join us here to try out this venue. https://www.openhouseofhistory.org
