| Description: |  Hello Coastal Harmony Region 9! Get ready for an inspiring weekend of harmony, learning, and connection! Join us for Harmony Summit 2026, where singers and musical leaders alike will discover fresh insights, sharpen their skills, and reignite their passion for barbershop! We’re thrilled to welcome Anne Downton (biography attached) as our special guest faculty! Anne will guide members through interactive sessions on topics like vocal production, tuning, and how to understand and apply feedback from scoresheets—turning judge comments into real artistic growth. For directors and musical leaders, dive into transformative classes on chorus culture, leadership beyond the music, and strategies for building a thriving, connected chorus. And of course, we’ll bring back favorites like music theory and arranging, tag singing, PVIs (Personal Vocal Instruction), and much more! See below for Event and Hotel Registration information. Full class schedule and sign ups for PVIs and Arranger 1 on 1s will be sent out in the coming weeks. Come learn, sing, and celebrate harmony with friends old and new. This is one weekend you won’t want to miss!
