The Hallowell Singers have traveled throughout the state of Vermont to present workshops and offer in-services at hospices interested in
creating a community of bedside singers. There are currently groups
started in Middlebury, Montpelier, Burlington and groups forming in
Littleton, Peacham and Rutland. These workshops can range from one to
four hours. They include the following;
- Teaching songs
- Stories and experiences shared
- Information about how to create a
group unique to your community
- Guidelines for Singers
- Guidelines for leaders
- Discussions about the role of thehospice
singer at the bedside of a dying person
- What we’ve learned and continue to learn
These workshops provide an opportunity to gather resources, learn new
songs, and most of all be inspired to create a community of bedside
singers through your area hospice and learn how to use music in this
powerful and loving way.
