ways to sing with Marv

(and many wonderful people!)

  • Joyful Voices Chorus

    Our 7-week non-auditioned community choir in San Anselmo, culminating in our community-wide Big Sing with Melanie DeMore. With a consistent group, we dig into some juicier songs and deepen our feeling of community with each other.

    Come sing at our Big Sing: Saturday, April 5th, 3:30-5:30!

  • All In Song Circle

    Our weekly drop-in song circle, where (as in all of Marv’s groups) no singing experience is needed, there’s no music to read, all the easy-to-learn songs are taught by ear, and all voices are welcome. IT’S SO. MUCH. FUN. Try it FREE!

    Starts April 16; Guest Songleader Lea Morris on April 23!

  • Free Pop-Up Choirs

    Musical flashmobs that spread the joy of singing together! We show up at public events, like farmers’ markets, invite passers-by to step into our circle, and sing songs that we learn in 5 minutes. And it’s always FREE!

    Sunday, April 20th, 11:00-12:00, at the Fairfax Earth Day Celebration, Bolinas Park

"When everything in life presses from outside of us, we have no choice but to sing like scared children relying on their song to stop the pain, the way that fire stalls the cold. This is the secret of all spirit, why it cannot stay inside, but must be brought from within us into the world. For it is the song from within that keeps the pain of living from snuffing our lives. It is the song from within ignited, again, and again, that keeps the world going."
