ConCertino 2012 will feature a wide variety of fantastic filk programming, including concerts by our guests and others, performers’ circles, workshops, theme circles, and lots and lots of open filking. As a surprise bonus ConCertino 2012 will have a concert by Urban Tapestry.
In addition to open filking, there will be one-shots, 2x10’s, and other participatory performance formats that give you the chance to perform on our main stage. Please sign up at registration as slots will be limited.
By now many of you with have heard that there were predictions that the world will end in 2012. We are skeptics, so for this year’s song contest the theme is "Not the End of the World." To be eligible songs must not have been written before Contata 6 (July 1, 2011).
Below is a tentative Draft Program for ConCertino. Remember, this is a draft and subject to change.
