Music is undoubtedly a powerful medication for the spirit, soul, and body.
On our second episode of “Joyful Living and Learning: Conversations with Phyllis,” host Phyllis Tucker-Saunders talks with musician Sam Perryman. An alum of Howard University School of Divinity, Sam started playing music when he was around four years old.
In this episode, Sam and Phyllis talk about:
* Making music that touches people’s hearts and lifts their spirits.
* How music can both help you express yourself and lift you out of yourself.
* The different approaches a musician can take when performing in front of people he/she knows compared to audience members who are strangers.
* How in some of Sam’s performances, he didn’t connect with churchgoers, but he learned from those experiences and persevered.
* How Sam likes to talk with people about how he is Christian Methodist Episcopal (CME). In his own words: “I sometimes explain to people who don't know what CME means. I say it's ‘AME but with a C,’ because people often know African Methodist Episcopal. Well, we are [also] black Methodist.”
* The changing nature of church services today, including how some services feature dancing, flag waving, etc.
* How one test of seeing if music is “good” is to ask: Does the music have any redemption value?
Near the end of this episode, we’re blessed with Sam Perryman performing two songs, “Amazing Grace” and “You Can Make It.”
