Jam Session
The Shape Note Sing has moved its fourth Sunday meetings back to the historic chapel at Mordecai Historic Park, where the Raleigh group began singing together almost 30 years ago! Beginners are welcome-no prior experience is required to participate. 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 songs are sung loudly, with spirit and enthusiasm, and rich four-part harmonies fill the room. The singers meet in Durham on the second Sunday of each month and in Raleigh on the fourth Sunday of each month. For directions call 919-781-3596 or visit the NC Shape Note website.
