Recognizing underrepresented composers on World Peace Day
Dancing in September! Join us for a sensational season premiere showcasing the rich tapestry of cultural diversity in music. The title “Reflect, Renew, Reimagine” is not just a nod to sustainability and progress, but also an invitation to celebrate a more inclusive and sustainable world.
This event is a special two concert celebration of music’s unique ability to foster harmony and understanding. First, on Friday, September 20th, we’ll host a paid indoor concert with the traditional concert atmosphere. Then, on Saturday, September 21st (World Peace Day), we invite you to join us at the Denver Performing Arts Complex Sculpture Park for a FREE outdoor concert!
At both events, we’ll honor composers who are often overlooked in traditional music history. It’s an opportunity to recognize and appreciate voices that have been marginalized, while also looking forward to a more inclusive future.
Stay tuned for more details about the outdoor event, including food trucks, activities, and music. Bring a blanket, gather your loved ones, and immerse yourself in the beauty of an outdoor concert under the stars!
