Current Season

Songlines

Taking a cue from the mythology of the indigenous people of Australia, our theme for the season is Songlines. Songlines are paths through a landscape that you can follow by singing. Through text and melody each songline creates a map that leads the singer from one landmark to another, ultimately connecting the beginning and end points of the path. Join us as we create and follow our own songlines through the next season. We’ve expanded our Youth Inspiring Youth program and invited noted Australian composer Sandra Milliken to join Libby Larsen as a teaching artist and mentor for the program. Milliken will also be WomenSing’s 2011-12 featured composer.
