SongDivision
Musical Happy Half-Hour
Virtual meetings and events offer an engaging, cost effective alternative to physical meetings, conferences and events, and they can be just as effective at memorably bringing your people together. The key is to infuse entertaining and interactive programming just as you would at physical events, and music is the perfect medium through which to do it.
Using the same principles of music we integrate into our in-person programs, SongDivision’s virtual meetings and events experiences heighten positive emotions, stimulate memory and strengthen relationships through interactive songwriting and performances. SongDivision can accommodate any virtual meeting scenario, from performing live in-studio for a televised broadcast, to setting up remotely via a virtual meeting platform.
