Drumming to a New Beat

Posted by Sandy Johnson, April 14th, 2008.

Confirmation drummers 2008Our April 13th service was energized by the Confirmation Class African Drum Choir.  Bob Gregory-Bjorklund and Kathy Kanazawa taught the group some basic rhythms, and they played to accompany our opening and closing hymns.

We also enjoyed our Spirit Voices Choir.  Along with leading the opening and closing hymns (with the drums), they sang “The Canticle of the Turning,” based on a traditional Irish tune.  It was an international day for music at First UCC!
