The VISI list of programs includes offerings for performers, teachers, and casual listeners and will be focusing on the English art song repertoire for its first season. Kudos to Artistic Director Rena Sharon and her team for putting together a much-needed art song festival in a somewhat opera-heavy world. The VISI home page invites you to:
Discover song as…
philosophy
imaginal theatre
historical
artifact
healthcare therapy
anthropological wonder
physiological
phenomenon
intuitive collaboration
merged languages
biomusicology
storytelling
AUDIBLE SOUL…
Hi Chris -- not sure if you remember me, but we were at the UBC School of Music at the same time, years ago. :) I'm a web designer these days and recently helped VISI put their site together, so I wanted to say thanks so much for linking to their site! You've got a great blog here and I like your studio site, too.

Lauren! Long time no talk. The Visi site is really very good, and I especially like the trees on the splash page. Contact me via the email address on the sidebar and tell me more about what you've been up to.
