Our mission-driven work includes…

our historic 2019 performance of Osvaldo Golijov’s La Pasión según San Marcos with the Minnesota Orchestra, named as one of the year’s best concerts by the Star Tribune; our sheet music editions and publications on Graphite; and the release of our first studio album with Bridge Records in April 2022 that celebrates BIPOC composers across the Americas. Our programming gained international attention when we became recipients of the 2020 ASCAP Award for Adventurous Programming, awarded by Chorus America.

This is our story.
