The Songwriter Circle has moved online! The idea is to play an original song and get feedback from the circle. Please prepare 2 lyric sheets to post during the Zoom meeting if you want detailed comments from the group. Lyricists and instrumentalists are also welcome and may find someone to collaborate with.

The cost is CHF 15, to be paid in advance when you register. You can pay with Twint, Paypal, or a bank transfer. Please contact Christine for details. If less than two people are registered 24 hours in advance, the event will be cancelled and you'll get a refund. The minimum is 4 and maximum is 8 songwriters so that we have enough time to share at least one song each - possibly songs.

This is for people who write as therapy or creative expression to performing songwritings to seasoned pros with hits on the charts. The only rule is to be supportive and respectful of other people's songs. Feedback should always start with comments about the positive aspects of the song. Please do not record other people's works since this is not intended as a performance and the songs are sometimes still a "diamond in the rough."

This date will be confirmed in March, but only if it is safe in terms of the Covid crisis.
