Experience the power of music that transcends boundaries and celebrates the richness of cultural diversity. UVic School of Music faculty musicians come together to pay homage to underrepresented composers — including people of colour and of diverse heritage and gender — who have contributed immensely to the world of classical music. This inspiring evening will feature a carefully curated selection of pieces spanning different eras and styles, including Ukranian folk songs, a work of Baroque theatre by Sebastián Durón, Trumpet Songs by Jennifer Higdon, Six Year Interlude by Serbian American composer Nebojsa Macura, works by Josephine Lang arranged by Sharon and Harald Krebs, and more!
