Drawing Lineage, Building Legacy is an intergenerational community chamber music project featuring queer and trans of color classical musicians illuminating our shared lineage and creating collective legacy in classical music. The performance will engage audiences in a soundscape of queer past and future through works by queer composers and composers of color.
From chronicles of civil war to queer kitsch, this concert program features a curated collage of contemporary and canonical works that center the creative voices of queer and trans people of color in classical music. In doing so, we create alternative narratives that shatter one-dimensional myths about the roles, contributions, and creative capacity of historically marginalized groups. Drawing Lineage, Building Legacy bridges individuals from multiple sectors within the classical music industry, bringing together performers, composers, educators and arts activists to generate historical narratives and queer futures that reflect our distinct experiences, priorities, and collective artistic vision.
