Threshold Choir (practice meeting for hospice vigil singers)
Location not specified yet# What We Do
When we are invited to a bedside, we visit in groups of 2 to 4 singers. We invite families and caregivers to join us in song or to participate by listening. We choose songs to respond to the client’s musical taste, spiritual direction, and current receptivity. Most of the songs we offer are composed by Threshold Choir members specifically to communicate ease, comfort, and presence. Other pieces may include rounds, chants, lullabies, hymns, spirituals, and choral music. We know that many communities of faith surround their members with this kind of circle of comfort; because our songs are not religiously oriented, we hope our singing can be equally available to those who might be deeply spiritual but not necessarily religious.
A session typically lasts about 20 minutes; if there appears to be benefit, we might sing longer. Using soft, lullaby voices, we blend in harmony or sometimes in unison, if that provides the most comfort. We offer our singing as gentle blessings, not as entertainment, and we are honored when a client falls asleep as we are singing. Most of our songs are very short, so their repetition is conducive to rest and comfort.
Families have said that our presence helps them to “be” with their loved one after the “doing” is done. Often they will continue to sing for their loved one after we have departed.
The service is our gift; there is no charge.https://thresholdchoir.org/Our Local Greater Hartford Chapter meets on 2nd and 4th Tuesdays from 2pm-4pm (at least until daylight is lasting longer ; )
