Shape Note Singing Workshop

Please Register in advance for live music events on our website. Shape Note Singing Workshop with Maddy & Clarke Shape-note singing—also known as Sacred Harp singing—is a thriving American folk tradition where four-part harmonies are sung a cappella based on geometric shapes instead of standard staff notes. Rather than aiming for performance, singers sing for community joy and connection. Singers Clarke Williams and Maddy Mullany are both actively involved in the robust Southeast Shape Note Singing and Christian Harmony communities, frequently leading sessions and participating in singings across North Carolina and the broader region.
