For our season opener, an assembly of composers who, by embracing pain, find solace, redemption, and clarity.

Yn ein cyfres flynyddol ‘Grace’ byddwn yn archwilio cerddoriaeth Grace Williams a menywod modern mewn cerddoriaeth. Fis Tachwedd yma rydym yn llwyfannu gweithiau gan y cyfansoddwyr cyfoes Salina Fisher, Anna Semple a Julia Wolfe.

Grit courses through Julia Wolfe’s *Anthracite Fields*, her Pulitzer Prize-winning oratorio for choir and ensemble that serves as a musical memorial to American miners and their struggle. *‘I guess I have a bias towards the grit.'* – Julia Wolfe

Wolfe was two blocks from the Twin Towers when the planes hit on September 11, 2001. *Big Beautiful Dark and Scary* is the sound of that aftermath: an ominous, awesome wall of sound.
