PWC presents its tenth New Music for Treble Voices Festival, featuring some of the Bay Area’s most renowned treble choirs, Peninsula Women’s Chorus, Piedmont East Bay Children’s Chorus Ancora, and Musae.
Be inspired by music of determination, perseverance, and the will to make big changes, as we honor women’s suffrage champion Alice Paul with a new commission by Jocelyn Hagen and PWC’s own poet and singer Barbara Saxton.
As we Rise Up, we Hold On, and we forge ahead.
