ATTENTION: THE NEW SHILOH SACRED HARP WEBSITE IS HERE.
WHO ARE THE SHILOH SACRED HARP SINGERS?
We're a small group of singers who are actively preserving the shape-note musical tradition in Northwest Arkansas. We are dedicated to promoting the historical tradition of Sacred Harp music. Anybody from the Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma or Kansas areas (or anywhere else) is cordially invited to join us for our monthly Sacred Harp singings and other related events.
YOUR INVITATION:
Anyone, from a beginner to an experienced Sacred Harp singer, is welcome at our meetings. Even if you'd prefer just to listen and not sing, feel free to come by and see us! We'd love to meet you, and we're always very glad to have visitors.
WHERE ARE WE LOCATED?
We meet monthly at the Shiloh Museum of Ozark History, located on 15th and Johnson Streets in Springdale, Arkansas. There are various buildings on the museum grounds; we sing in the general store. See the "links" section below to visit the website of this museum, which has so graciously helped us promote the rich cultural heritage of Sacred Harp singing.
WHAT WE DO:
We sing Sacred Harp music. If you're unfamiliar with Sacred Harp music, please check our
FAQ for more information. This is a choral music tradition with a very long and distinguished history.
WHEN DO WE MEET?
Generally, we meet on the 4th Sunday of every month at 1:30 PM. There have been a few exceptions to this schedule (such as making allowances for the Christmas holiday season). However, we usually meet on the 4th Sunday. If you should have any questions about the meeting time, just send us an e-mail and we'll try to get an answer to you as soon as possible.
