DIVAS: Transforming Our World – Season Concert III

We honor the women who lived the change they wanted to see in the world, especially those involved in the suffragist movements of the early 20th century. IWC continues expressing our passions for new music and justice by featuring new musical works jointly commissioned by IWC and other treble choirs: Lifting as We Climb, a multi-movement work for chorus and narrators by beloved composer Joan Szymko, and Radium Girl, by Michael Bussewitz-Quarm. You will also hear the winner of our 2nd Annual Emerging Voices Composition Competition, as well as other empowering music from the last century – like RESPECT from the great diva Aretha Franklin!
