Tonality rehearsal: ‘We Tell Each Other Stories’ by Craig Hella Johnson

Behind the scenes of our first rehearsal of the season! Embracing the powerful words of ‘We Tell Each Other Stories’ by Craig Hella Johnson from his work ‘Considering Matthew Shepard’.
Every note, every story, serves as a testament to resilience, the quest for justice, and the voices yearning to be heard.
This season, we’re not just singing - we’re amplifying stories that matter.
Join us for a transformative evening on Sunday, Oct. 8 at “Just Life” - our first concert of the season!
A musical journey that promises more than melodies - “Just Life” is a call to awaken, to understand, and most of all, to act. And we’d love for you to be a part of it.

“We Tell Each Other Stories”
Composed by Craig Hella Johnson
Text:
We tell each other stories so that we will remember
Try and find the meaning in the living of our days
Always telling stories, wanting to remember
Where and whom we came from
Who we are
Sometimes there’s a story that’s painful to remember
One that breaks the heart of us all Still we tell the story
We’re listening and confessing What we have forgotten In the story of us all
We tell each other stories so that we will remember
Trying to find the meaning . . .
I am open to hear this story about a boy, an ordinary boy
Who never had expected his life would be this story, (could be any boy)
I am open to hear a story
Open, listen.
All.
