194. Hildegard's Song

from A Breath of Song · host Patricia Norton

Song: Hildegard's Song Music by: Barbara McAfee   Notes: Sometimes a great groove and simple harmonies is exactly what you need to explore over -- and this song is a beautiful way to listen to your own singing voice playing. Barbara McAfee joins us next week to talk about her journey toward becoming a voice mentor to many folk, developing the Full Voice program, and what that means to her. We were both reeling a bit in the wake of the apparently politically motivated shootings in Minnesota, close to Barbara, shortly before we recorded. Reflecting on the effect of listening to our own voices helped us both stabilize and ground.    Songwriter Info: Barbara lives on the wild and scenic St Croix River about an hour from Minneapolis/St Paul. She is a master voice coach, songwriter, song leader, hospice choir director, long distance swimmer, poet, and author of Full Voice. She feels so lucky to be alive on planet Earth.   Sharing Info: The song is free to share in oral tradition groups, but please contact Barbara for recording and/or performing permission.   Song Learning Time Stamps: Start time of teaching: 00:02:58 Start time of reprise: 00:10:14   Links: Barbara's website: www.barbaramcafee.com    Nuts & Bolts: 4:4, mixolydian, 3-layer   Join this community of people who love to use song to help navigate life?
