Richard Shindell is a virtuoso singer-songwriter, guitarist and producer. he will be performing his original work and will be in conversation with Jungian analyst Steve Zemmelman about the symbolic and the numinous in his music. The evening will also feature a unique call and response cycle with short presentations on themes in Richard’s songs by Jungian analysts John Beebe, Robin Greenberg, Steven Nouriani, Jane Reynolds and David Tresan each of whom will be responded to by Richard’s music, and discussion with the audience.
For those of you not familiar with Richard’s work and curious about why we are featuring this artist, his work makes extensive use of the symbolic and is rooted in a deep connection to the numinous. His songs paint pictures and tell stories, juxtapose images, bring characters to life, and evoke entire worlds along the way. His background in philosophy, time living in a Buddhist monastery, years spent at the Union Theological Seminary each contributed to a special foundation in the depths of human experience and the capacity to express it in music.
