Collaboration Beyond Songwriting: A Journey with Francesca de Valence and Emma Bosworth
Collaboration in the musical realm often focuses on the process of writing a song together.

About Emma Bosworth:
Emma is a singer-songwriter, founder of Wild Mountains Songs and National Project Manager of Green Music Australia. Emma is a long time friend of Wild Mountains Trust. In her teenage years, she attended multiple earth education camps managed by the Trust, and she says it was a major turning point in her life. In 2016, Emma had a yearning to create time and space to create new music; she knew Wild Mountains could provide a space with big creative impact. Using her collaborative heart, she asked some friends to join her on a weekend away amongst the trees to co-write and take some deep breaths. It was the start of something really special.
