MUSIC AND ART AT THE UUSIC

Musical and art offerings at the UUSIC include our weekly services, the Dances of Universal Peace, the Drum Circle, and special programs. If you have questions, suggestions, or would like to participate, please email our Music Director, Barby Buddin at barbybuddin@yahoo.com.

Music
Fine music is a long-standing Society tradition, whether presented by our Choir, soloists or small ensembles from this musically-talented community, visiting artists, or our own members—including several of our young people each year.

In addition to the choir, the weekly service includes special music, which ranges from traditional to classical to jazz and folk, performed by local artists and Society members.  Other opportunities for musical expression are available during the month.

The Dances of Universal Peace
Offered monthly between September and the first week of June, the Dances celebrate both the unity and diversity of all beings. They combine simple folk dance movements with chanting or singing of sacred words and phrases from the world’s spiritual traditions. Dance circles have spread around the world through the efforts of Peaceworks International Network, providing a unique spiritual experience for both experienced and beginning dancers. They are taught and led by Virginia Melroy, a supervised teacher of the Dances.
