Psalms in Dialogue
To be broken is to be called into improvisation, into “making” as devotion. This is how we enter a dialogue with the Psalms, one that began thousands of years ago, among men and women of faith, speaking and listening to God.
In this online presentation from 2021, Duke University Chapel and the Duke Chapel Choir welcomed visual artist Makoto Fujimura, theologian Dr. Ellen Davis, Ekklesia Contemporary Ballet, dancers Andrew Nemr and Paiter van Yperen for an evening of creativity and conversation inspired by the biblical Psalms. In the program, artists, musicians, theologians, singers, and dancers presented performances and works inspired by five Psalms: 46, 88, 90, 91, and 92. The program was the third part of the Chapel's Psalms in Dialogue series. Read more about the series in Chapel View magazine.
