Step inside the world of The Sacred Harp—a 19th-century tunebook kept alive in communal gatherings of unaccompanied, full-voiced singing. Singing the Shapes invites viewers into this radically participatory tradition, where anyone who shows up can lead, and the boundary between singer and audience disappears. Filmed across the South, Midwest, and beyond, the documentary captures the emotional power, fellowship, and sheer sonic force of Sacred Harp singing as it continues to resonate in the 21st century.
