“A Single Cloth” takes inspiration from a poem by Rainier Maria Rilke in his Book Of Hours. It’s a sentiment expressing deeply felt love and gratitude in the confusion and uncertainty of our relationship to each other - when we “reach beyond our limits” and “reconcile the ill-matched threads”, as Rilke writes. Through these efforts, we may truly care for each other despite feelings of great pain, grief, doubt, or depletion.

Sound & Memory, founded by violinist/composer and certified Death Doula Concetta Abbate, is a music and arts organization that provides personalized memorial offerings including live music, original music compositions, recordings and workshops. We explore innovative ways to incorporate music into contemporary rituals for both grief and death, as tradition evolves over time.

Our belief is that music has the power to strengthen communities facing the loss of a loved one by evoking the legacy of that person's life.
