How can the human heart remain alive in times of grief, violence and evil? A free three-hour workshop with Maureen Amelia Brodie and Eytan Bloch at Common Street Spiritual Center in Natick.In moments of trauma, loss and crisis, prayers can seem powerless. Yet "Iron Swords Prayers," received in the midst of the October 7th war, offer an unexpected way of facing evil without being swallowed by it. They are not prayers of escape, but of transformation. They do not require agreement. They require honesty: a willingness to stand still in the presence of suffering and consider that even here, freedom has not vanished.Maureen Amelia Brodie is a curative eurythmist, medical clown, storyteller and Enneagram Journey therapist. Eytan Bloch is a biographical counselor, Council facilitator and Focusing teacher. Together they have shared "Ripples of the Heart" for ten years through books, performances and workshop retreats.Saturday, November 14, 3:00 to 6:30 PM (two sessions with a break), in the Moon Room (upstairs) at Common Street Spiritual Center, 13 Common St, Natick. Please enter through the School Street door. Free of charge. RSVPs are appreciated but not required, and everyone is welcome. More info and RSVP: https://commonstreet.org/event/iron-swords-prayers/

Peter Gardner - ICE, From Signal Hill William Boyce - Symphony No. 4 Benjamin Britten - Four Sea Interludes Ralph Vaughan Williams - Symphony No. 5 -- Mark&nbsp;Latham, Music Director --




We begin with a new work, ICE, From Signal Hill by Peter Gardner. This is a musical dramatization of an iceberg passing by the easternmost point in North America, Signal Hill in Newfoundland. "ICE" represents the dawn breaking over the Atlantic, revealing a giant iceberg passing southward, cracking in the sunlight.

The delightful Symphony No. 4 was created by the 18th century composer and musician William Boyce. Benjamin Britten's Four Sea Interludes are adapted from his opera "Peter Grimes." These evocative scenes depict Dawn, Sunday Morning, Moonlight, and Storm.

Our concert ends with Ralph Vaughan Williams acclaimed Symphony No. 5. Premiered in 1943 with the horrors of WW2 all around them, it was said that this "work’s ‘serene loveliness is completely satisfying in these times and shows, as only music can, what we must work for when this madness is over’."

Please join us for this respite from our day-to-day. The concert will be at MassBay Community College in Wellesley with a reception after the concert. MassBay is minutes from Rt 95, easy to get to with free parking. Great dining and shopping is minutes away in nearby Wellesley Square. Tickets are pay-what-you-can. We hope to see you there!
