Join us for Sketches, a program that embraces artistic exploration and experimentation. This performance celebrates an artform still in progress– music caught in the act of becoming rather than arriving fully formed. Across the evening, Sketches captures music still taking shape: bold, unfinished, and full of possibility. Featuring premieres by Jessie Rivest, Angelica Negrón, Dale Trumbore and more, this program pushes at the edges of what choral music can be. It's an invitation to sit with the in-between, discovering these works alongside the Choral Artists performing them for the very first time.
