Inversion Da Capo presents Hear Me Roar! March 1 and 2
On March 1-2, 2025, Da Capo, Inversion’s professional ensemble dedicated to new music for treble voices, presents Hear Me Roar!, a concert consisting of music that amplifies, uplifts, and empowers voices that are often oppressed and silenced—especially of folks in the BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities, and countries suffering from the ravages of war. This concert will feature several newly commissioned works by composers who belong to the communities this program holds space for, as well as the winning entry from the Sandra Fivecoat Memorial Composition Contest. This program also features percussionist Jordan Walsh, cellist Annette Eicker, and pianist Benjamin Dia. Katrina Saporsantos directs.
