Kamala's Hope

Presented by San Francisco Girls Chorus

The San Francisco Girls Chorus opens its season with a selection of works by women composers that includes the world premiere of I See You, I Hear You, I Believe You by Ursula-Kwong Brown, written in the wake of the #MeToo movement, and the choral world premiere of Kamala's Hope by San Francisco-based composer Candace Forest. Originally written as a trio chamber work, Kamala's Hope has been revised to feature SFGC's Premier Ensemble alongside soprano Shawnette Sulker, cellist Emil Miland, and organist Jerome Lenk. Three previous SFGC commissions also feature on the program by Angelica Negron, Amy X Neuburg, and Pamela Z.
