 AGENDA FOR THE CONNECTICUT SONGWRITING AND PERFORMANCE CONFERENCE

(The exact schedule will be finalized closer to event time, as performance slots and additional workshops are filled in. )

There will be multiple activities occurring at each time block, which attendees may select from, and plenary sessions to bring everyone together.  The critique panel will be be able to provide specific, constructive feedback and analysis on songs and works-in-progress, as well as demonstrate how to effectively give constructive objective feedback. The informal discussion time with presenters will allow attendees to ask questions,discuss topics, and interact with presenters in more breadth or depth. The performances will be all original music and will highlight a range of styles and degrees of proficiency, while providing a forum for writers to share their work with a receptive audience. The vendor/exhibitor tables will provide an opportunity to see and discuss a range of useful  information, products and services.
