Music, in particular singing and choral music, exerts a special power over those who sing it, but also over those who listen to it. In her talk, Joanna Gill will discuss some examples of choral music, among others by Arvo Pärt and some of her own works, where the music really brings out the text or evokes an emotional response that can be very healing for the mind and body and through which a deeper connection to scripture is created. An early example for this is the music by J. S. Bach that he wrote for the church. The talk will be followed by a number of examples that participants can sing together.
In cooperation with Universal Edition.
