Singing from the Heart – Bristol
with Andrew Clark
Saturday 10 October 2026 13:30-17:30
Horfield Quaker Meeting, Bristol, BS7 8PD
Come and enjoy the beauty of singing together
We will learn simple sacred songs and harmonies drawn from the Christian and other spiritual traditions. Singing from the heart helps us to connect, individually and collectively, with the flow of Universal Love. This can be meaningful for many people, whether their spirituality is linked to a particular faith tradition or to none. We will learn the chants by ear, so you do not need to be able to read music or be an experienced singer to enjoy this!
The programme will include:
- exploring the use of singing as spiritual practice
- learning a variety of sacred chants and rounds
- a sung prayerful offering at the end of the day using the chants that we have learnt

Andrew Clark worked for nearly 30 years as a psychiatrist and psychotherapist in the NHS, before retiring in 2017. His earliest experience of singing was in a church choir and over many years of singing in choirs as well as on retreats and pilgrimages, he deeply appreciates the therapeutic and spiritual impact of singing. He now uses heart-centred singing as a way to develop our heart consciousness.
