Song Portraits Concert – Friday, March 31. Radiant Rural Halls. March 31 – Song Portraits: Milton,

Song Portraits is a project by Corbin Murdoch that is inspired by the individuals that contribute to the vibrancy and vitality of Milton Community Hall.

A Song Portrait is exactly what it sounds like: an artistic rendering of a person, but instead of paint and canvas, it uses melody and lyric. During a series of informal, one-on-one “portrait sittings” Corbin became acquainted with several individuals in the Milton community and composed original songs drawn from their stories and ideas. At this final performance, we will celebrate project participants as they sing their own portrait live at the Milton Community Hall, backed by the Song Portraits Band organised by Musical Director Carlie Howell. Performed in front of family, friends, and the Hall’s members, “Song Portraits: Milton” is a rare opportunity for the community to gather together in celebration of one another.

Portrait Subjects: John Hooper, Joy MacIntyre, Ken Williams, Rosemarie Ramsay, Joyce Blackett and more

Song Portraits Band: Alicia Toner, Carlie Howell (Musical Director), Josh Langille, and Mike Ross
