Hallowell Singers
Hallowell is a chorus of volunteer singers trained to practice the therapeutic art of singing for the dying and their families.
Hallowell was formed after a beautiful sing to a dying hospice client in her home, surrounded by her family.
Our songs and our quiet presence bring comfort and offer support to the dying. The response of those we sing for is often emotional and calming.
Music can open hearts, quiet fears, and touch all who are present, including family members and friends, caregivers, and singers.
Since our inception in 2003, we have served hundreds of families in our community. We have also helped to launch a still-growing number of hospice choirs throughout the New England region and across the country by teaching workshops, offering guidance and counsel and being available for continued support for developing hospice choirs. We are honored to be a strong model for the growing movement of the practice of bedside singing for the dying.
Hallowell will sing for anyone who is dying or close to death, regardless of whether or not they are a CfS client. To schedule a sing or to request more information, please contact our Hallowell Scheduler.
