Song and Verse

NEC: Burnes Hall | Directions

255 St. Botolph St.
Boston, MA
United States

Inaugurated in the fall of 2020, the Song and Verse recital series provides a platform for undergraduate singers at NEC to experience the unique and invigorating process of song preparation and performance—creating interpretations, building performance skills, and forging intellectual and musical connections with a wide literature.

Working closely with Vocal Arts faculty members, students will engage with rich traditions of song composition from around the globe.

Committed to diversity, our programs will feature both established and emerging composers and poets from across many cultures and traditions. This series creates new opportunities for students to participate with the singular type of storytelling unique to song. 

Brett Hodgdon is tonight's pianist and coach.
