WomenSing presents a spring concert, giving voice to the musical traditions that have shaped America and WomenSing, including works by William Billings and Aaron Copland. We will feature a world premiere of our Youth Inspiring Youth commissioned work by Marjorie Halloran. We include Harry Belafonte's "Turn Around," as well as "Bright Morning Stars," a traditional Appalachian song arranged for WomenSing by Shawn Kirchner.
We will also honor women who have 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.
