Music as a Spiritual Practice With Martha Gallagher

Music as Spiritual Practice

Weekend Retreat with Martha Gallagher

May 22 – 24, 2026

During this contemplative retreat we explore music as spiritual practice, using several beautiful practices that, while seemingly simple are actually quite potent, enriching our time with and in our music. These practices come together to offer us the opportunity to connect more deeply with ourselves, our instruments, the music and Spirit. Whether we are playing, singing, practicing, learning, creating or performing, we can transform our involvement with our music into a deep and rich spiritual practice.

This retreat is for all musicians (instrumental or vocal); most suitable for intermediate beginner to advanced-level experience. Note: this retreat would not be suitable for novice levels.

Please bring your instrument.

Please note: this is not a technique or repertoire worship; it is a spiritual retreat.
