Congressional Chorus presents Homesong

November 12, 2022 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm EST

$30 – $40

Join the Congressional Chorus for its first concert of the 2022-2023 season, Homesong, on Saturday, November 12th at 7:30 p.m. The Chorus’ mission is to perform American music, and this program challenges the boundaries of what is traditionally considered “American,” including works by US immigrant and first-generation composers who draw inspiration.

Some highlights from this concert include a newly commissioned work, Chalo Re Mhaare Des by Gaayatri Kaundinya, which fuses Hindi musical traditions with Western musical traditions. The commission amplifies the work of an emerging composer whose Indian-American identity is underrepresented in the field. Homesong also features guest poet Marjan Naderi, a young Afghan refugee who’s written pieces about her experience and identity.

What: Homesong, presented by the Congressional Chorus featuring special guests
When: Saturday, November 12 at 7:30 p.m.
Where: 945 G St., NW, Washington, DC
