Description - A Song to Sing, a Life to Live by Don Saliers
In this rich exploration of music, authors Don and Emily Saliers
interweave their own stories as well as those of others to reflect
on the what, the how, and the why of music as
a key aspect of spirituality in our lives. As an Indigo Girl,
folk-rock singer-songwriter, Emily performs in primarily secular
settings, while her father, Don - composer, cantor, and church
musician - writes and arranges for church congregations. Their
audiences may differ but both father and daughter understand the
profound spirituality of music and have personally witnessed how
their music brings healing to people no matter what the setting or
circumstance. A Song to Sing, A Life to Live bridges two
generations, two approaches to spirituality, and two genres of
music - the music of Saturday night and Sunday morning. Don and
Emily Saliers reflect on such topics as music and justice, music
and grief, music and delight, and music and hope. They open the way
for those who seek to embrace new spiritual practices by creating
music, sharing music, and developing their musical skills as a
spiritual practice.
