In celebration of International Women’s Day, WomenSing is proud to present Songweavers: Women’s Bond and Resilience in the Voice of Celtic Traditions, an uplifting performance that honors the strength, contributions, and enduring spirit of women through the rich heritage of Celtic music and storytelling.

The unique performance will feature an exceptional ensemble of guest artists. The Peninsula Scottish Fiddlers, led by Artistic Director and pianist Shauna Pickett-Gordon, will bring the energetic and dynamic traditions of Scottish music to life, with her creative direction and innovative arrangements. Joining them is renowned percussionist Peter Maund, known for his virtuosity in world music traditions. He will infuse the performance through the Bodhrán, a traditional Irish frame drum. Captivating storyteller Dana Sherry will enrich the experience with Irish and Scottish tales, guiding the listeners through a vivid journey that spans history and legend. Weaving these elements together into a vibrant tapestry of rhythm, melody, and narrative, the singers of WomenSing under the artistic direction of Ofer dal Lal, will braid the tunes and words in gentle ballads and powerful war songs. The event will conclude with a hosted St. Patrick’s Day reception.

Founded in 1965, this year marks WomenSing’s 60th anniversary. As part of the choir’s year-long celebration, Artistic Director Ofer dal Lal drew inspiration for this performance from the Celtic knot, a symbol of interconnectedness that reflects the shared strength, values, and creativity of women across generations. Songweavers offers a remarkable opportunity to honor women’s power and legacy. Join WomenSing for an unforgettable evening of stirring music, poignant storytelling, and vibrant rhythms in celebration of International Women’s Day.
