Participants will be on the floor; blankets\, bolsters and mats are available to you but feel free to bring your favorites. \nAbout the facilitator:\nVanessa Bresson is a Reiki attuned\, IASH certified Sound Practitioner located in Freeport Maine utilizing and blending Sonic Embodiment Experience by way of vocal toning/singing\, Tibetan Bowl Sound Massage\, ringing and singing Crystal bowls and more. Vanessa blends sounds\, vibration and notes intuitively on the road to invoke others innate ability to heal themselves. She moves through her creative practice partnering with beloved yoga teachers to bring nervous-system restoring sessions in class and 1:1 bespoke sessions. \nVanessa’s path to supporting others is irrevocably intertwined with her own healing journey with music which began as a young child. The sound of her own voice became her constant comrade through thick and thin to bring her a balm for a tough world. She furthered upon exploration of her own self-healing in the early 2000s at a small Liberal Arts college in Vermont. Beginning in the curiosity of discomfort by way of her first yoga pose\, these roots of exploration in spending time with herself in different ways of being and of thought grew into the building blocks of a new way of existing. She feels that we are to one another antidote and medicine and that small\, loving acts of care can catalyze into new ways of loving ourselves and the world. \n*All classes are 18+\n*Please Pre-register to hold your spot

SUMMARY:VentiCordi Chamber Music presents\, ‘IMAGINE’
DESCRIPTION:This evocative musical experience invites you into two extraordinary sound worlds—one unfinished\, the other timeless. \nBegin with Arnold Schönberg’s Ein Stelldichein (A Rendezvous)\, a rarely heard early work shimmering with late-Romantic color and mystery. Though incomplete\, it offers a tantalizing glimpse into the young composer’s expressive voice. \nThen\, journey into the transcendent with Olivier Messiaen’s Quartet for the End of Time\, written during his imprisonment in a WWII camp. Scored for an unusual ensemble of piano\, clarinet\, violin\, and cello\, this masterpiece is a meditation on eternity\, faith\, and the resilience of the human spirit. Let this evening of profound beauty and emotional depth transport you beyond the boundaries of time and sound. \nPlease join us at 1:00 for a pre-concert panel discussion of the fascinating story behind Messiaen’s remarkable work.

SUMMARY:An Evening with Soggy Po Boys
DESCRIPTION:New Hampshire-based SOGGY PO BOYS will bring the musical traditions of New Orleans to the Concerts for a Cause stage on Saturday\, October 18th at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Brunswick\, 1 Middle Street\, Brunswick to raise money for Oasis Free Clinics and the Immigrant Legal Advocacy Project. \nWith a contemporary New Orleans sound\, Soggy Po Boys explore the vast musical traditions of New Orleans and expand their repertoire to look beyond NOLA jazz. This young octet plays traditional New Orleans jazz\, the kind with fluttering clarinet solos and swingin’ shout-along choruses\, and playful bursts of brass. But they’ve also got the soul\, the spirit and the swing of street-parade chants\, classic blues\, Meters funk\, rocking rumbas\, even calypso\, noting New Orleans is the northernmost Caribbean city. Suffice it to say\, the music is hot and driving when it’s fast\, and sultry when it’s slow. You will also hear the heavy influence of the New Orleans sound in their original tunes. The main thing the band aims for is accessibility with their music. Soprano saxophonist and clarinetist Eric Klaxton describes their sound as\, “Whether or not you know the tune ahead of time\, by the time we’re done playing it four minutes later\, the melodies are the kind of thing you can walk away whistling.” \nSoggy Po Boys have quickly become an institution. They are spreading the good news of New Orleans music across the northeast and beyond\, playing at concert halls and street corners; music festivals and burlesque festivals; bars and libraries; wherever the party requires. Part of the beauty of New Orleans music is that it’s celebrated and appreciated wherever it goes\, from the street to the theater. \nThe Soggy Po Boys are: \nShaina Schwartz : Vocals\nJim Dozet : Vocals + Guitar\nEric Klaxton : Clarinet + Saxophones\nNick Mainella : Tenor Saxophone\nJosh Gagnon : Trombone\nMike Effenberger : Piano\nScott Kiefner : Bass\nBrian Waterhouse : Drums \nTickets are $25 in advance\, $30 at the door\, and $10 for students/children. Available at the church office (729-8515)\, Gulf of Maine Books\, or online at http://ticketstripe.com/soggypo
