Our spring concerts will give voice to the variety of traditions that have shaped America and WomenSing. The program will include works by William Billings and Aaron Copland, as well as the world premier of our Youth Inspiring Youth commissioned work by Marjorie Halloran.

We will also honor women who been instrumental in giving voice, featuring the Maya Angelou-inspired Still I Rise, and Alice Parker’s Hark, I Hear the Harps Eternal, in celebration of her immeasurable contribution to choral music in America and beyond. What did “new music” sound like, 10, 25, and 50 years ago? Come hear music from WomenSing performances past, providing a glimpse of the then new American sound.
