The Alexandria Choral Society will premiere this work alongside the winners of our 2020 Sing-Off Grant Program, T.C. Williams High School Choir, at our to-be-scheduled social justice-themed program. Over the past several months, our singers and patrons have had the opportunity to vote on the text for each of the five movements of this piece, and participate in live discussions with the composer to make real-time changes to the composition. Check out the above video to hear composer Jonathan Kolm and ACS Artistic Director Brian Isaac discuss the project.
