Jam Session
The NC Shape Note Singers’ monthly sing in Durham is a great place to learn about the unique style of singing known as sacred harp or shape note singing. No prior experience is necessary to participate, and the session is open to singers and non-singers alike. Singers in this tradition sing without accompaniment and sit arranged by vocal part in a “hollow square,” facing one another across the square and taking turns at leading. The singers also meet the fourth Sunday of each month in Raleigh’s Historic Mordecai Chapel.
