I'm Ryan Connolly, the artistic director of a new choir based in London called Ephemeral Love . In my twenty-five years as a music director, I've found the most inspiration in creating music with others that helps tell a story of our collective human experience, and sharing that with others. Ephemeral Love will do just that, adding another creative thread to the vibrant arts environment of London.

The amount of our goal--£3450--covers the cost of sheet music, our rehearsal and performance venue, and the cost to hire collaborative musicians--all for our inaugural concert on May 15, 2025. We've planned something very special--the Bluegrass Mass by Carol Barnett--to introduce ourselves to the city. The closer we get to our goal, the more we can use ticket sales toward building our program for the future. If we're lucky enough to surpass our goal, any other funds will be used toward our application to become a registered charity in the UK.

I want Ephemeral Love to contribute to the artistic and musical life of London for a long, long time. Anything you can contribute to our first concert helps us build toward that forward-looking goal.

With much gratitude,

Ryan Connolly
