We had the “Social” at our house after the singing yesterday! Apparently, the “Social” is generally a traditional part of these multi-day Sacred Harp Conventions, a way to show hospitality to all the visiting singers; and we opted to host the one for the Western Mass Sacred Harp Convention at our big, queer house!! And let me tell you, this one turned into a proper, old school Northampton House Party!!!! With both floors filled with folks having a fine, fun time! Most, I opted to keep my phone well away, and just let events unfold unobserved by any not present. To just be in the glorious moment! So these are just a couple of random shots I took of the singing that broke out upstairs! One of TWO separate singings from different Shape Note books that were going on in adjacent rooms!! (We have good, thick walls!) I love our home!! And I love this community!!!! So much fun! So much LIFE!!!! #sacredharp #shapenote #wmshc #singing #shapenotesinging #sacredharpsinging #westernmass #westernmasssacredharpconvention #social #queer #transwoman #community #tradition #joy #wmshc2023 (at Northampton, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cptf35LMpwF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We’re nearing the end of the Western Mass Sacred Harp Conference pics, and the posts have slowed down a bit while in photographing another (different type of) singing event in upstate New York. But here’s a batch more glorious joy for you!

I honestly just love how animated some singers get when they’re leading a song in The Square!!! It’s photographer’s catnip!

Aaaaaaaand here’s a drop that includes your Humble Narrator (and Photographer) doing a few of the other things she does!! Being loud and funny and asking for (more) money in my role as Western Mass Sacred Harp Convention Treasurer!! And yes, for you eager eyed WMSHC attendees out there, I have played around with time just a bit in the last few posts. Mostly in the name of having a good key image! (And, in this case, some degree of vanity!)

The entire Western Mass Sacred Harp Convention was a delight to be able to photograph! But there were a few moments that were particularly special to me! Like the photos in this set of my friends Wendy and Mog singing!! They were just both so obviously enjoying the moment! They were radiating joy! It was human sunshine in the square!!!

The Western Mass Sacred Harp Convention is much more fashionable and even Punk Rock than you might guess! From beautiful brightly coloured hair to Minor Threat!!! (There’s even a photo of my own stylish day two outfit here!!!)
