HarbourVOICES! Presentation Proposal Submission Form

HarbourVOICES! International Festival of Collective Singing Traditions, in collaboration with The Singing Network, invites proposals for presentations which focus on foundations, components, and diverse aspects of singing together, i.e., collective singing.

HarbourVOICES! is an innovative six-day celebration of diverse singing traditions from around the globe: June-29-July 4, 2024. In addition to a variety of concerts and events, HarbourVOICES! will provide spaces for collaboration, sharing, and reciprocal learning through authentic experiencing of varied musical cultures and singing traditions.

Throughout morning sessions of HarbourVOICES!,  join intimate gatherings of musicians, scholars, conductors, pedagogues, composers, song leaders … to exchange, connect, create, share, and explore. Presentation focus areas might include: singing and song, communicating and sharing cultural traditions and practices, storytelling, conducting/leading in diverse contexts, teaching and learning, composing, moving, imagining… and beyond! 

We welcome a variety and diversity of presentation formats. 


Collective Singing traditions are rooted in diverse musical – social – cultural practices, traditions, and/or rituals, may be performative and/or ceremonial, and are embedded in communities around the world. Collective Singing often serves as a means of expressing identity, disseminating social commentary, transmitting musical and cultural heritage, and celebrating shared values and experiences that may lead to individual and cultural transformation.
