Please join Sangita with guest musicians Fitzhugh Jenkins on guitar and percussionist Matt Moon Nelson for an evening of devotional chanting to raise vibrations and open our hearts!
Saturday, July 31, 2021 5-7pm
Tickets: $15.00 online purchase prior to the event, or $20.00 at the door.
Kirtan is a practice of call and response chanting and singing from the ancient tradition of Bhakti Yoga. Bhakti means devotion. We sing to that presence deep in our hearts, and touch into that place of love that is our true nature. Chanting together in a group magnifies the experience and allows us to open our hearts and feel profound healing.
No experience needed. Simply bring your hearts and voices and let the mantras be the medicine!
Beth Ann-Schroder aka Sangita
Sangita is a professionally trained classical singer, who re-discovered her voice through the practice of devotional music and chanting after a 10 year departure from performing. In 2005, she began studying yoga and mantra recitation with her teacher, Raji Thron. The healing effects of chanting changed her life, and the way she would use her voice as an instrument, going forward.
Beth Ann wishes to extend deep gratitude to her teachers, Raji Thron and David Newman, for helping to transform her life, heal her heart, and guide her on the path towards healing others through the sacred sounds of chanting. She dedicates all of her kirtans to these kind mentors, to her mother, the source of her every breath, and to Neem Karoli Baba…the guru deep within her heart.
