Calling all music lovers, dreamers, and adventurers to the transformative Deep Singing Program.
<p”>Let your light shine! No singing experience required. At Deep Singing, we celebrate the innate human ability to sing, because singing is more than a skill, it’s a joyous expression of the soul. And a universal language to unite us all.
Over twenty-five years ago, kindred spirits, Helen Bee and Barbara Bellamy, posed a simple, yet profound question: “Could a program where we just sing all week become a reality?” Resoundingly yes!
Chants, rounds, and four-part-songs (SATB), lovingly collected with permission from a wide range of sources and songwriters, form a rich Songbook representing diverse voices and spiritual traditions.
Each morning, we form a circle held by the Pavilion’s incredible acoustics learning songs with meditative, easy-to-sing harmonies and relishing the profound silence between songs. Afternoons, we offer a variety of optional specialty workshops, from voice-body connection, a Threshold Choir demonstration, learning harder part songs, and allowing time for campers to explore the trails, beaches, and stunning natural beauty of Camp Indralaya.
Some singers return every year they can to this beloved program. We find those at this program for the first time feel immediately welcome in this growing community of singers.

Karen Goens has attended nearly every session of Deep Singing as a camper. She started singing late in life so, to make up for lost time, jumped into as many learning experiences as possible – community chorus, Christmas caroling, Threshold Singers, workshops, Bellingham Sings! women’s classical and jazz choirs.
