Encompass: All the Colors is a musical performance that will celebrate and promote the appreciation of chamber music by incorporating modern concepts of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion into the core message of the program. This will be achieved through progressive concepts of performance presentation, community collaborations, and unique programming, including the world premiere of a newly commissioned work, that will redefine the classical music experience for audiences.
Envisioned by project creators Rachel Taratoot Ciraldo and Kristina Finch, this event will be a launching point for a new non-profit, Encompass, a female-led collective of musicians, creators, and composers with the mission to create accessible, meaningful, community lead productions that invite audiences to expand their perceptions of classical music and its role in modern society.
World Premiere by Megan Bledsoe Ward.
