The A Cappella Salon
A recurring invitational concert. Each Salon brings together 3-4 groups from different corners of the Bay Area scene to meet and share what they’ve been working on.
Tell the backstory. Bring a work in progress. Don’t take it too seriously.
This is a time to learn from each other, and to connect as people.
Upcoming:
See our upcoming events on our Lu.ma calendar.
Note that the Salons happen about once every 2 months, so there may not be one on the calendar yet.
If your group would like to perform, send us an email via the Contact page
Program Goals
Bring existing a cappella groups into the network and keep them involved
Create consistent performance opportunities for groups at any level, which drives motivation and engagement
Facilitate sharing of ideas and craft in an open and genuine way
How it works
Picture performing in a living room to a group of friends. Fully acoustic - no mics
No set stage - performers decide where in the room they want to perform, and the audience shifts their chairs accordingly.
Don't perform your best stuff. Share what you're working on - a song that's still in the works (sheet music is fine), your favorite arrangement, a song with a story (tell us the story)!
A few minutes of Q&A at the end of each set
Lots of time in between for meeting the other singers
If you would like to participate, partner with us, want more information, or bring the Salon to your city, contact us.
