Nu to Nigun: A Musical Chassidic Workshop
First timers and tzadikim welcome. Learn Chassidic history and stories of the Great Masters alongside their transformative and uplifting musical tradition. Each workshop session will focus on a particular Chassidic master or theme, learning text alongside singing. The first session will focus on the Ba'al Shem Tov and specific themes in his teachings that relate to making your daily life a bit more magical. You do not have to be a good singer! You just have to have a soul and some curiosity.
Free/All Ages
Who can attend?
PDX Nigun Circle is open to all! No Jew is too young, old, religious or secular to attend. While the art of nigun was started by and is kept alive by Hasidim, all can find strength and meaning through the practice. Most importantly, you do not need to consider yourself a good singer, let alone a singer at all! The nigun is an act of vocalizing the needs of the soul, so quality is not a factor in having a meaningful experience.
Is it free to attend?
Yes! Donations are accepted and appreciated to compensate for kosher snack procurement and space rental costs.
Will there be others?
Yes! This is a monthly gathering. Follow @pdxnigun circle on Instagram for updates, or get in touch via email: aidenkent13@gmail.com.
