Listening through the Sacred Silence

Explore how the elements of music, movement, and silence lead us deeper into our understanding of the sacred in each other.

The workshop will be lead by:
Sally Willing, Music Therapist, Music Teacher
Cate Decker, Spacial Dynamics Practitioner
Julia Elliot, Certified Clinical Musician

Inspired by the ”listening work” of Channa A. Seidenberg (anthroposophical music therapist, lyrist, and composer), this workshop explores the sacred art of listening through various artistic means. We will first focus on the lyre tone, known for its purity and etheric sound to deepen our listening to go beyond tone into the depths of silence.

We will also work with movement, singing and improvisation to further enhance our listening experience. We look at this work as not merely a musical or artistic endeavor but as a metaphor for life in terms of how we encounter one another. It is said that to listen selflessly is one of the greatest gifts we can give to one another. Our hope is that we can open the door to approaching that ideal.

This workshop is open to anyone who wants to explore listening in a deeper sense as a sacred act of love.

There is no requirement to have any previous musical training. Just come with an open heart and a willingness to listen in a new way.
