The Worcester Chorus Women’s Ensemble joins Cantilena in Arlington Center for this joint-program featuring Reena Esmail’s I Rise: Women in Song. Each movement of this work nods to different public figures who have inspired Esmail; this work is “a reflection on a single facet of the multifaceted experience of being a woman in this world.” Cantilena’s collaboration with The Worcester Chorus Women’s Ensemble features treble voices and instrumental ensemble, performing Esmail’s work in both Worcester and Arlington MA.

Cantilena’s collaboration with The Worcester Chorus Women’s Ensemble makes it possible for both groups to present this special concert that includes string quintet, harp and flute as well as over 45 treble voices in both Central and Eastern Mass.
