Sing the Season: Songs to Warm the Dark invites you into a joyful midwinter gathering where music, movement, and community spirit come alive. This concert-style celebration blends the rich harmonies of English carols, traditional songs, and lively tunes with the infectious energy of percussive clog dancing—and maybe even a dash of Morris! You’ll be swept up in both driving rhythms and atmospheric instrumentals, with moments of spoken word, poetry, and storytelling woven throughout.
Best of all, the evening thrives on audience participation, so your voice becomes part of the harmony as we sing, play, and dance our way through the dark season together.
Bringing together some of the most famous Contra and English country dance musicians of our generation, this show is a whole new way to appreciate their ability to create connection between musicians, audience members, music, and tradition.
