Singing in Prison w/ Catherine Roma

Singing has been an integral part of being human for thousands of years. Choirs, choruses, sing-alongs, spontaneous celebrations, grief rituals, and other expressions of the human experience continue to this day in old and new forms. In this podcast we explore how singing together remains a vital part of life. Through interviews with song leaders, academics, improvisers, gospel choirs, prison ministries, children's singers, and more we discuss some of the how to, the why, and the often surprising ways that group singing blooms throughout the world. 
Stuart Stotts hosts these conversations, examining, reflecting, and hearing stories from those who are in the field, creating harmony and giving voice to anyone willing and able to join in.
