Join us at the Stephenson House on Saturday, November 14, from 1–3 p.m. as we welcome the St. Louis Shape Note Singers for a special community sing at the museum.
Shape note singing is an early American form of a cappella music that was especially popular in this region during the 1820s. The tunes are sung in four-part harmony and are religious in nature. Participants will sing from The Missouri Harmony, a songbook first published in St. Louis in 1820, the same year construction began on the Stephenson House!
This event is free and open to the public, but space is limited to 12 guests, so reservations are required. While observers are welcome, please note that this is a participation-based sing, not a performance. Loaner music books will be available for those who wish to join in.
Tickets: No physical tickets will be issued. Your online receipt will serve as your ticket—please present it at the gift shop upon arrival. If your plans change after reserving, contact the site so we can make your spot available to others.
