THE MUSICAL TIES THAT BIND October 27, St. ONMichael’s hosted Sacred Sounds, an ecumenical evening of religious music in the Madden Hall Auditorium. Featuring Christian, Jewish and Muslim singers, the event’s aim was to foster mutual respect and understanding. “It’s part of our commitment to dialogue among the Abrahamic faiths,” said organizer Michael O’Connor. “We wanted to emphasize the commonalities in the religions by focusing on the subject of music.” Nearly 70 students and people from local churches, synagogues and Muslim associations took up the invitation. “It was an enjoyable way to gain insight into another community — one that didn’t involve speeches or lectures, but choirs and a capella groups,” said UofT New College student Hanah Zuberi.
