The Sixth Annual Pikes Peak Sacred Harp Singing is an opportunity for you to sing

at the foot of the mountain that inspired Katharine Lee Bates to pen the lyrics to one

of our most beloved patriotic hymns – America The Beautiful. On Saturday the 26th

of March 2011, we will again sing from both the Denson and Cooper books. Come

share a great day of shape note singing and our fine Front Range hospitality

including dinner on the grounds at noon.

Sacred Harp is four part a cappella harmony using a four shape notation. Since we

sing for ourselves rather than an audience, new singers are always welcome and

encouraged to participate. Interested listeners are equally welcome. Books are

available for loan or purchase. Admission is free with donations accepted. Come

and bring a friend.

Directions from Interstate 25 North or South: Take the Circle Drive exit [#138]

and proceed West on Circle which becomes Lake. Continue on Lake toward the

Broadmoor Hotel. Turn right on 4th Street to the Chapel.
