Panel Discussion
Sacred Music and Dance: Tradition and Ethics, Exploration and Appropriation
Thursday, February 9, 6:00-9:00pm
Houghton Multi Faith Center
Reservations required
Join a discussion about the phenomenon of learning cultural spiritual traditions: Where do the lines of appropriation lie? How are traditions changing, both in context and out of context…or in “new” contexts? How can “outsiders” learn and honor dance and music techniques and traditions, with respect? Are there elements of sacred traditions that are embedded in their practice, engendering particular experiences regardless of your relation to the culture’s spirituality? This discussion of arts, ethics, spirituality, and virtuosity will be fascinating and far-reaching…bring your questions!
