Linda Smith Koehler & Rissa Moore: Singing in Sacred Circle from the “Mother Ship,” Women With Wings~ Bangor, Maine
In 1993, Kay Gardner, pioneer of women’s music and music as medicine, founded our singing circle, Women With Wings, and in the years that followed spawned circles all over the country. Twenty-seven years later Wings is still going strong and members are creating their own music. In this workshop, Linda and Rissa will sing songs original to Wings and talk briefly about how you might create songs of your own.
