Dr. Casey Cook, Director
The American University Chorus has spent the semester exploring the intersection of the realities of physical distance, technological advancement, and the art of singing in an ensemble to produce a “virtual performance”. This semester’s work focuses on pieces by five female composers who are all currently writing music in the US, featuring works by Grace Brigham, Karen Siegel, Ashi Day, Melissa Dunphy, and Caroline Shaw.
