“How Music Creates Community” with Nis Kildegaard
Nis Kildegaard brings a lifetime of interest in the question, “How Does Music Create Community?” to our UUSMV pulpit on Sunday, August 11. He currently serves as board president for Island Community Chorus. His father was dean of the Lutheran Theological Seminary at Grand View College in Iowa. He fondly remembers growing up as part of a Lutheran branch known as the Happy Danes and will bring two hymns to us from that tradition.
At Yale Nis studied psychology, philosophy and literature and served as editor of his class yearbook. He worked at the Washington Bureau of the New York Times for a year as personal assistant to Scott Reston, who happened also to own the Vineyard Gazette where Nis served as news editor from 1981 to 2004.
