I've been asked to write something for our church newsletter about singing in church. Here it is...
On Singing Together – Peter Sykes, Music director at First Church in Cambridge, Congregational, U.C.C.
By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept
when we remembered Zion.
There on the poplars
we hung our harps -
How can we sing the songs of the Lord
while in a foreign land? - Psalm 137
The world we live in - for now - is a foreign land indeed.
The pandemic has brought devastation and calamity on many fronts, and one casualty – for now - is singing together. It’s been well established that choir rehearsals and congregational singing are among the riskiest activities for infection; singers, even amateurs, are ‘super spreaders’ because of their athletic breathing and projection.
Simply put, as long as we must have social distancing, we cannot have ensemble singing.
This is a tragedy for now – but it is for now.
Nothing keeps us from singing together in family circles.
Nothing keeps us from singing along to recordings,
or on Sundays to the organ accompaniment on our livestreamed services.
Nothing keeps us from singing when on our walks outside.
Singing will continue, and when we come together again there will be a joyful noise of gratitude heard all over the world as we blend our voices in a chorus of wonder, love and praise.
These words were never more true…
My life flows on in endless song;
Above earth's lamentation,
I hear the sweet, though far-off hymn
That hails a new creation.
Through all the tumult and the strife,
I hear that music ringing
It finds an echo in my soul
How can I keep from singing?
No storm can shake my inmost calm
While to that rock I’m clinging
Since Love is Lord of heaven and earth
How can I keep from singing?
I love you all.
We will sing together again. - Peter

This dramatic multimedia organ concert is focused on unique American music and at the same time is more patriotic in nature. It has content unique to our concert since it originated with Dr. Jordan's thesis research.
Jeannine is a champion of the organ and its music. She has traveled throughout the US and the world promoting and sharing organ music through her innovative concerts. As a professional organist she enjoys a varied career. Besides concertizing and recording, Jeannine has held university teaching positions and has served in a variety of positions in church music ministry. She is also the President and founder of Pro-Motion Music — a company celebrating the world of the organ. Dr. Jordan was awarded the Doctor of Musical Arts degree in Organ Performance and Music History from the University of Oregon where early American organists was the subject of her dissertation.
This study led to further research and collaboration with media artist,
David Jordan to create From Sea to Shining Sea.
David Jordan, a skilled pianist with a Master of Music degree in composition from Ball State University, is also a media artist. Whether creating the visual portions of the Pro-Motion Music concert multi-media events, re-imagining photographs, his work inspires and mesmerizes its viewers.
His work guides you through the programs with images, videos and live cameras following Jeannine and her incredible expertise on the organ. He helps the audience experience the story in the moment; hearing the music, seeing the images, and simultaneously feeling the pulse of the space in which the image existed. His multi-media approach is simply an extension of what he likes to experience every day of his life; an awareness of everything going on.
