The Golden Bridge Choir sings songs of spirit, struggle, liberation and celebration from many parts of the globe. Maggie & Emile also share a strong interest in African music as well as music from the African American tradition. They strive to create a safe ,inspirational & joyful environment that allows for the participation of adults as well as children 11 years and older. Part of their vision incorporates providing a creative child care component that allows younger children to accompany their parents and be occupied in the space while the session is taking place. When there is a large group of younger children with a strong desire to participate in the singing , then material is included for them and worked on toward the end of each session. Come join us and feel the rhythm! Sundays, 11:30am–1pm, at Golden Bridge Yoga , 6322 De Longpre Avenue, Los Angles , Ca. $120 for a session of 12 Sundays.

Raise Your Voices is a non-auditioned community choir that welcomes men and women, both seasoned singers and beginners, to come together in a fun, inclusive and spirited singing community. Most songs are taught in the oral tradition and no prior singing or performing experience is necessary to join. Our repertoire includes a rich variety of songs and chants from many different cultures and singing traditions. At the end of each session, we have a “Big Sing”, sharing what we have learned with our friends and families, and inviting them to participate with us in a wonderful afternoon of songmaking. There was a time when singing was a part of everyday life … please spread the word—and let’s reclaim our musical birthrights!

Sheet music will be available for some songs for those who want it.

The emphasis is not on public performance, but rather on creating community and having fun through shared song. All are welcome to take part in the joy of music making! No one turned away for lack of funds.

Anyone with a desire to sing is welcome to join this non-audition community choir. Our repertoire includes songs from various cultural and spiritual traditions around the world, songs of justice and peace, songs of hope and longing, and songs that are simply fun and full of celebration. At the heart of what we are about is coming together to sing in harmony as a means of both personal, local and global transformation. Singing opens the heart and re-enchants the spirit. Harmony brings harmony!

Imagine a non-auditioned choir in your own community where all voices are welcome. One World Community Choir is for people who love to sing, but have either been too shy or too busy to do it. In this low-pressure, high-pleasure choir, you’ll learn beautiful songs from all over the world, including hypnotic chants from the rainforests of central Africa, traditional ballads from Scotland, uplifting kirtans from India, and traditional folksongs from our own land. In addition to their rich harmonies, many of these songs have irresistible rhythms that will get your body moving, and inspiring lyrics that will brighten your spirits. Al will be accompanying us on piano and drums, and choir members who play musical instruments are encouraged to play along.

Unlike choirs whose primary focus is on performance, our focus is on the experience of singing together for our own enjoyment. And don’t worry if you can’t read music. You’ll be learning most of the songs by ear, just as they’re learned in the cultures they come from, and Betsy will post all the parts to all the songs online, so you can practice anytime between sessions. On-going choir, but new members are welcome at the start of any 6 or 12-week session. Fee: $9 per session. Monday nights in Hopkins, Tuesday nights in St. Louis Park, 7–8:30 PM. Register for 6 or 12 sessions through Hopkins or St. Louis Park Community Education. Call Betsy for more information.

Singing is powerful and uplifting. Singing together teaches us how to listen to each other and singing in harmony has a ripple effect in the community and beyond. Whether you are an experienced singer, or have always wished you could sing, you are welcome to sing with our non-audition community choir. No need to read music.

We sing songs of spirit from around the world; step by step, call and response, in the oral tradition. These will include African freedom songs, Latin chants, songs from the African-American tradition, as well as contemporary songs. All voices are welcome! 

Ubuntu Franklin and Ubuntu Dillsboro meet in the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina and are open to anyone who has a desire to sing in harmony with others. We sing songs from around the world and songs from our own local traditions. No singing or musical experience is required. All the songs are taught aurally (by ear) using traditional singing styles.

Both groups meet in 10 week terms with breaks between terms. Public performance is not the goal of either group. Call Tom for more information and for references from current singers.

The Common Ground Chorus is a caravan of song. We sing towards a world that works for everyone. We propel ourselves with a wide array of freedom songs, rounds, and chants. Along the way we’ll stomp our feet and slap hands together in games of rhythm, call and response and improvisation. Thru it all we grow our abilities to sow harmony and courage in the world. The magic of communal song reminds us that we are the ones we’ve been waiting for! If you’ve never experienced the thrill of singing in a choir, or if you’ve always thought of yourself as someone who “just can’t sing”, this is a great way to start. There will be plenty of challenges and solo opportunities for experienced singers, too. The Common Ground Chorus will begin a four month season in January 2007 that will culminate in two public performances. Venue, day and time TBA. Contact Craig for further information.

We sing an eclectic mix of songs from around the world — ballads, folk, spiritual, peace, and freedom songs, with an occasional 60s pop tune thrown in for good measure. All voices are welcome, no auditions. The choir season starts in early October and culminates in late May with a community concert. Langley United Methodist Church, corner of Anthes and 3rd Street. Monday nights, 7:00–9:00 pm. All voices welcome. 50 members.

Open Voices is dedicated to facilitating personal, community and global harmony through the weaving of our diverse voices in multicultural choral song. We believe everyone can sing and that singing in community stimulates creativity, connection, joy, vitality, empowerment and overall well-being. All are welcome, no experience necessary. Open to youth and adults without regard to previous musical experience, beliefs or abilities. You can sing!

Our intention is to create a safe place for all voices to discover the joy of singing harmoniously and passionately together. We sing songs from all over, mostly love songs to the earth, each other, all living things, and to the forces of spirit that support and sustain all things. We believe that making beauty in song together is one of the ways we can pay our spiritual ‘rent’ of giving back for the privilege of living on this exquisite planet. We share our music when asked to at various local events, and give fund raising concerts for local and international programs that support social and environmental concerns.
