SELAH is a three-week spiritual journey for your artistic life and your relationship with God.
Each week begins together and then leads you, step by step, into your own time with God — through one Bible passage and simple daily prompts.

FAQ
What does SELAH mean?
‘Selah’ (Hebrew: סֶלָה) is a Hebrew word which, in the Psalms of the Bible, marks a pause – a moment for reflection, a time to linger before continuing.
How much does SELAH cost?
SELAH is free of charge.
We want all interested professional musicians and artists to be able to take part.
Of course, running a project like SELAH involves costs. The work of Crescendo is entirely funded by donations.
We therefore invite you to support the work of Crescendo Germany and the SELAH project with a one-time or recurring donation. Your support helps us continue to develop and improve SELAH.
Donations to Crescendo Germany are tax-deductible in Germany.
Thank you for your support.
Do I need to attend every Zoom session?
We would love you to join us each week.
That is why we offer two different time slots:
9:00 am CET — German
8:30 pm CET — English
The shared sessions provide additional inspiration, connection and encouragement along the way.
However, we have designed the daily practices so that you can also use them without attending the Zoom sessions.
If you cannot join us live, you could also find a SELAH partner and go through the journey together. Alternatively, you can book an Appointment with one of our team.
Can I join SELAH even if I have never been involved with Crescendo before?
Absolutely.
SELAH is a great opportunity to get to know Crescendo and to connect with other professional musicians and artists.
We also invite you to check out the international Crescendo Network: www.crescendointernational.org
What is the SELAH Journal?
Every SELAH27 participant will receive a digital copy of the SELAH Journal by email.
The SELAH Journal is your guide through the three weeks of SELAH27. We recommend that you print it out.
Here you’ll find all the materials you need, as well as space to put your thoughts down on paper. We want SELAH to be an even more ‘analogue’ experience, with more ‘offline elements’.
The journal contains the weekly schedule; some activities include video and audio recordings that can be accessed via a QR code.
The German version will be available not only as a download but also as a printed booklet. You can order it afterwards from our shop.
I have another question.
ust get in touch.
We are always glad to hear from you and happy to help with any questions about SELAH.
