Belonging in Song! - Fran André and Emily Roblyn - A day of harmony singing and community

Belonging in Song!

Join Fran and Emily for a joyful day of harmony singing in community - their singing events often sell-out and receive glowing feedback!  Fran and Emily are both very experienced song leaders with a natural inclination to create spaces where everyone feels wholeheartedly welcome.  They will teach all the songs by ear, and you are welcome to swap parts as and when you feel to find the right part for your voice.  

All are welcome!  No previous singing experience necessary.  

As the Zimbabwean proverb goes 'if you can walk you can dance, if you can talk you can sing'.  Singing is our birthright.

Songs will be 3-4 part harmony in general.

We will break for lunch - please bring your own lunch with you.

Teas / coffees will be provided throughout the day.
