FEAST OF LOSSES
A Communion of Grief and Gratitude
Album Release Concert
with
Jami Sieber and Kim Rosen
Mystics, poets and shamans have always known that in the rhythms and sounds of the soul's language, the mind bursts open and levels of being come into alignment.
For more than a year (and perhaps many lifetimes!), Jami and Kim have been co-creating a body of work on the themes of grief and gratitude. The result is an uplifting immersion in original music by Jami inspired by poems spoken by Kim from some of the greatest writers the world has known. Words from Langston Hughes, Ellen Bass, Marie Howe, Lucille Clifton, Mark Nepo, Stanley Kunitz, W.S. Merwin, Yehuda Amichai and Mary Oliver rise and fall in the evocative waves of Jami’s music .
Jami and Kim have been facilitating explorations of these difficult, necessary themes for many years. This offering is a culmination of their shared love of the realness, rawness and intimacy that arises when we turn towards all levels of letting go.
In this moment in history, every one of us has been touched and changed by the personal, societal and planetary loss we are undergoing. Please join Kim and Jami in a transformative convergence of poems & music that emerge from the heartbreak, gratitude and celebration of this moment in our lives and in the life of our world.
Tickets $35, $50, $100 (sliding scale)

INFORMATION ABOUT THE IN PERSON CONCERT:
The event will take place indoors in a covid-conscious environment, with a limited number of seats available. The Dance Palace requires that attendees wear masks indoors and fill out contact tracing forms.
“ The poems were potent, on target, heart breaking, beautiful, disruptive. This is what alive, vibrant human souls can create together… a riveting experience.”
“Have you ever been deeply moved by a piece of music? Have you ever been captured and compelled by a word, phrase, or poem? Now for a moment imagine those experiences combined in a way that is so powerfully delivered by the artists that it transcends the physical people involved and alchemizes to create a space in which magic and miracles can and do occur.”
