What
LET YOUR SOUL SING! Learn new music from faiths around the world in this high-energy eight-week workshop. Re-visit the spirit behind singing, discover new vocal techniques, and meld singing, chanting, and meditation together with gospel & inspirational music, play and prayer, for an unforgettable experience. Workshop ends in concert featuring…YOU! Go ahead, step out of your role as Shower Singing Sensation and let your voice be heard.

Why
RiseUp! joins the PopUp trend of “popping-up” one day, then disappearing anywhere from one day to several weeks later. Proven to build up interest by unique exposure, the goal of RiseUp! Popup choir is to use music as an agent for interfaith dialogue amongst choir members and audiences.
