Tracing Visions

The Sphinx Virtuosi present the sounds of our rich history, our conflict, and our celebration in Tracing Visions. The program sets out to challenge and evolve the traditional classical canon by illuminating a new pathway for listening, sharing, and artistic expression. The ensemble tells a more complete story of America with Xavier Foley’s vision of the Black National Anthem; Jessie Montgomery’s Banner, a work that unleashes this country’s many vibrant voices; and Andrea Casarrubios’s Seven, a tribute to heroes who fought to save lives during the pandemic.
