Third Annual Quilcene All-Day Shape Note Sing
June 28
The Olympic Peninsula Sacred Harp singers invite you to join them for an All-Day singing from the Denson revision of the Sacred Harp. Singing will take place from 10am-3:30pm, with registration opening at 9:30am and a potluck mid-day. “Shape-note singing is a participatory musical & folk tradition practiced in the United States for over 200 years. There are no auditions, rehearsals or performances. While most of the songs have lyrics rooted in Protestant Christian tradition, no particular religious or political philosophy is embraced or endorsed by this community. Everyone, regardless of musical experience, background, or creed, is welcome in our community and our singings. We encourage everyone to come listen, come sing along, and maybe even try leading a song!”
