About this event
If you can't join us in person, please consider purchasing a ticket to be with us in real time anywhere in the world. (Or, if that hour is just too challenging where you are, watch the performance anytime in the 48 hours following its start on May 11 at 5pm USPDT.)
The Contra Costa Chorale celebrates the diversity of choral music, bringing together artists who may have been previously marginalized or overlooked. We rejoice in this opportunity to make a place at our table for guests of a variety of perspectives, cultures, musical styles, gender expressions, and lived experiences historical and contemporary. We invite you to recognize with us that music welcomes all—especially music that comes from within ourselves, sung by and for all of us.
Featuring the world premiere of “Seed” by Joan Szymko, based on "Declaration," a poem by Elsa Gidlow, lesbian founder of Druid Heights, a trailblazing bohemian community in Mill Valley.
Guest artists: Rev. Carolyn Anderson and the Community Fellowship Choral Ensemble
