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

Milton Community Hall

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, &quot;Song Portraits: Milton&quot; is a rare opportunity for the community to gather together in celebration of one another. All are welcome to attend free of charge. Please register in advance through the Eventbrite event online or by calling Shari at Milton Hall ((902) 566-3154).Corbin Murdoch is a songwriter and cultural programmer from Vancouver, BC, who now calls Charlottetown home.
