The 10th anniversary New Music for Treble Voices Festival will celebrate foundational women composers Pauline Oliveros and Florence Price. The festival will include guest groups Ensemble, from the Piedmont East Bay Children’s Choir, and the Sacramento-based Vox Musica. Together with the PWC, the groups will share a day of workshops concluding in a public concert at 4pm. The concert will highlight guest soloist Michele Kennedy, who will sing a set of art songs by Florence Price, and feature solo sets by all performing ensembles, including the premiere of “Mouth,” composed for the PWC by our first Composer-in-Residence, Julie Herndon. The concert will conclude with all choirs performing Price’s “The Moon Bridge” and Oliveros’ “Tuning Meditation.”

Cost: $10-25
