First Parish UU Choir
This choir holds rehearsals most Thursday evenings from 7:00-8:00pm. Music Director Molly Petrik leads warm-ups, teaches songs, and guides singers to both vocal and technological independence. Current members report that choir rehearsals are the highlight of their week, giving them a sense of being a part of something greater than themselves.
Now on Zoom!
Guided by Music Director, Molly Petrik, and with each choir member’s willingness to learn new things, the First Parish Choir has pulled together and found new ways to lift our voices in worship.
Most notable is how we’ve learned to build “collage music videos.” After online choir rehearsals teaching the basics, Molly arranges the music and records multiple tracks on video. She then shares her video with each choir member, and they record their parts. Molly receives the audio tracks and synchronizes each voice. The video editor synchronizes the video images. The final product includes harmonized music and pictures of each person joining together in song. Congregation members have been amazed with the results.
Another Musical Opportunity
Molly and The Music Committee encourage you to create music videos independently. May you, in your own way, adapt and thrive!
