NEW WORKS BY LOCAL COMPOSERS 
INSPIRED BY THE ART WORK OF 
SAM FRANCIS!

 

 

As always, Vox Musica jumps into the musical unknown with their highly anticipated, adventurous concert projects. This year, we have chosen to support new choral works written by, local composers. PICTURA: New Music for Women's Voices will showcase new compositions written for Vox Musica by composers from the greater Sacramento area. Vox Musica's commitment to collaborations with local musicians and artisans has been a hallmark of our activities since our inception and we are excited to once again realize this vision in PICTURA: New Music for Women's Voices.

 

PICTURA, the latin word for "picture," is a collaborative project between the Crocker Art Museum, their exhibition of the acclaimed California native expressionistic artist, Sam Francis, and Vox Musica. Local composers were asked to submit new choral pieces influenced by work of Sam Francis. The winning compositions will see their premiere's on this amazing concert project.  PICTURA: New Music For Women's Voices is in two weeks so hurry and share this project your friends and purchase your tickets before they sell out.
