The Unitarian Universalist Congregation at Montclair

As we continue Ember’s A.I. series, specifically examining what is unique in the human journey in our increasingly A.I. world, we look in these May concerts at . . . 
the very human experience of 
<h3>love.</h3>
It is not, of course, all hearts and flowers, as the full experience is one that is as complex and multi-faceted as each one of us. Through Ember’s stylistically eclectic mix – everything from several world premieres to exciting ensemble arrangements of some favorites by Billy Joel, Rhianna, Paul McCartney and others – the story is one of adoration, yearning, loss, even loathing. 
 This is the part of human thought, life and feeling that cannot fit into data sets. And Ember Artists share it with you through song!
