Singing from the Sacred Harp and Missouri Harmony
Important: Local singing on July 6 CANCELLED
Announcements updated 6/30/09
The St. Louis Shape Note Singers meet on the first,
third, and fifth Monday evenings of each month to sing from the 1991 Denson
revision of the Sacred Harp and the Missouri Harmony.
Singings on first Mondays begin at 7 pm (or as
soon as enough singers arrive) at a University City location; on third
Mondays we often, but not always, meet at 7 pm at the Thompson Music Building
on the campus of Webster University in Webster Groves. When the Webster
University location is not available, we frequently meet at the Recital
Hall in the Music Building at UM-St. Louis, or Glendale Lutheran Church.
Fifth Mondays can vary not only by location but also by time. We are nomadic
enough to make it very wise to check our Local Announcements and/or contact
Dave or Paul before attending.
If you are not on our e-mail list, please
check the local announcements page or call Dave at 314-776-7477 for updates
on times and locations. You may also e-mail Paul at
