Choral Accompaniments to Our Times
San Francisco-based treble-voice choir Conspiracy of Venus is known for their fabulous interpretations of director Joyce Todd McBride's arrangements, crafted especially for the choir, featuring out-of-the-ordinary repertoire ranging from Bjork to PJ Harvey, David Bowie, and more. This performance will feature new music by McBride, in settings of texts by Bertolt Brecht that offer potent critiques of misused power. Conspiracy of Venus will also sing a set of favorite selections from their "catalogue” and at least one world premiere! Last year's show was a sold-out success, and this year's festival performance is not to be missed!
