The Abbey Sutton Courtenay
TAIZÉ BY CANDLELIGHT
With Jackie Singer, Marguerite Wallis and Anne L Ryan
Jackie, Marguerite and Anne invite you to join them for an evening of sacred song originating from Taizé, a monastic ecumenical community in France, well known for its meditative music. An introduction to the rounds and four part harmonies in the first half of the evening will lead into a reflective time of sung prayer and silence.
Please come expecting to sing! No singing experience is needed to enjoy this wonderful evening in the Great Hall of The Abbey, lit by candles and warmed with the glow of a log fire.
7.30 – 9.30 pm
Suggested donation £12

“Such beauty in your music….I have been playing your CD and have been completely bowled over by it – it is absolutely wonderful” (C.M)
“I’ve been wanting to email for some time to say how amazing your music is!! Truly beautiful. There is one that stays with me all the time – the 5th track about the weaving, yearning….oh how amazing. Thank you for sharing your beautiful voice with me” (K.P)
I wanted to let you know that I played Wayfarer II and III to two of my clients (in the context of shamanic healing) on Tuesday. This is magical music…the words of Hafiz are so profoundly affirming at a soul level for someone who might have experienced violation..and your inspired setting of them so much supports the meaning of the words” (C.S)
