- **Event Description**: No auditions. No judgment. No need for perfection. Just the joy of singing in harmony with a room full of music-loving humans.About this EventWHAT IS A ONE-DAY CHOIR?Gaia Music Collective's One-Day Choir series is an opportunity to sing in a choir for one day only. A celebration of song and the connective power of singing in harmony. An opportunity to build community, make some new friends, and raise our powerfully diverse voices as one.No auditions. No commitment. No need for perfection.Just the joy of creating something bigger than ourselves with a room full of beautiful humans!Whether you're a vocal ensemble veteran or have never sung in a group before, you are welcome here - all experience levels are valued in Gaia Music Collective!OUR SONG THIS TIME AROUNDFor this One-Day Choir, we will be lifting our voices to “American Requiiem” by Beyoncé, arranged by our very own Kenyon Duncan. This opening track from her Cowboy Carter album is a bold and soul-stirring call to reckon with history, reclaim identity, and honor the resilience of those who came before us. With its powerful blend of gospel, folk, and country influences, the song reminds us that music can be both lament and liberation, grief and celebration. Kenyon’s arrangement will guide us through this deeply layered piece, creating a space where we can embody its message together in harmony. Join us as we transform Beyoncé’s vision into a collective choral experience that speaks to truth, justice, and belonging.LEARNING THE MUSICSheet music and vocal recordings of each part will be available as learning resources before the event, and our collective goal is to practice the parts ahead of time so that we might come into the gathering with ! This way we can spend our time together really diving into the richness of music-making, rather than trying to teach the parts one by one. We don't need to know our parts by heart by any means (and you defffinitely don’t have to memorize it), but the stronger we are in our parts coming in, the more we'll be able to really dig into the fun stuff!(If this style of learning isn't your cup of tea, we have other group singing events where you don't need to prepare at all! Check out our CircleSinging gatherings and House Shows.)LED and FACILITATED BY:Kenyon Duncan is a Brooklyn-based composer-performer, teaching artist, and producer from Northern California.

All we ask is that you bring an open mind, a desire to connect, and a willingness to leave judgment of self and others at the door.FAQHave any questions that haven't been answered here?
