Rise Up Singing - Voices Together, a Singalong Concert

Voices Together: A Benefit Singalong Concert

Annie Patterson & Peter Blood, the creators of Rise Up Singing and their 2015 sequel Rise Again are coming to Toronto! This is a chance to meet the people who "wrote the book" and learn some of the 1200 additional songs in their new songbook.

This concert will celebrate the life & work of Pete Seeger (next year will be the 100th anniversary of his birth) and the many terrific musicians who are working to build a better world through music. Annie & Peter will be joined for this evening concert by guest artists Katherine Wheatley, James Gordon, and Sam Turton, all of whom have wonderful songs in Rise Again.

If you have a copy of Rise Again, bring it with you. Copies will be available to borrow or buy at the concert.

Admission at the door will be for a suggested donation of $25-35 for adults ("Be generous! Be affordable!") No one turned away for limited funds.

There will also be a family concert at the same location at 4:30 pm. To reserve a space at the family concert, email tmmfriendshouse@hotmail.com.

Donations help to support the Toronto Quaker Refugee Committee.
