Shaped Note Gospel Harmony Workshop - Weiser, ID
 
May 13, 2017
Ah, the joy of quartet gospel harmony singing, whether in a simple four-piece ensemble or in large group! Regardless of whether you have ever sung before, Glen Garrett will quickly have you making a joyous sound in this all-day, four-session workshop that uses the traditional “shape note” singing technique that has been so successful for teaching students with little or no musical knowledge.
