SUMMARY:Beethoven and Transcendence
DESCRIPTION:How does music take us beyond our assumed identities?  The ‘physical world’ of Beethoven’s final piano sonata fills no more than 27 minutes of clock time\, but through it we experience a sound world in which time seems to stand still and we gain the experience of individual identity merging with a larger whole.  Lois Shapiro\, FUUSN ‘s concert pianist and music educator will help us understand the intricacies of this work and show us its force\, from beginning to end. \nNote: This service is in person only in the Parish Hall. No online service.

SUMMARY:Deepening Connection to Spirit through Silence and Song
DESCRIPTION:Practicing mindfulness and singing together allows a place in us to open enough that we can hear or feel or sense the Spirit in us. The First Unitarian Universalist Society of Newton (FUUSN) will host an informal Sunday Service at 10:15 on August 6 that explores a few of the paths of practice that lead to mindfulness.  We will breathe together\, meditate\, listen deeply\, and sing together. With Suzanne Buchko and Joan Caplan\, you are invited to experience the connection between the stillness of quiet reflection and the singing of our souls. \nNote: This service is in person in the Parish Hall only. No online service.
