    Speed Dating with Composers

    Featuring workshop participants with Daniel Townsend, Jenny Mitchell and Meg Washington

    Experience a one‑night‑only performance showcasing songs learned, shaped and brought to life in a single day by three exceptional singer‑songwriters and a choir of participants.

    After a full day of workshops and rehearsals, singers join Daniel Townsend, Jenny Mitchell and Meg Washington on stage to premiere newly learned works, guided by Alex Morse (Exhale Choir). This uplifting performance captures the thrill of creative collaboration — bold, heartfelt and beautifully human.

    Hear arrangements prepared only hours earlier, celebrate community music‑making and enjoy an evening that highlights the artistry of three distinctive voices alongside the power of collective singing.

    This concert is an unforgettable snapshot of creativity unfolding in real time.
