In 2019, the Children's Chorus of Washington commissioned famed composer Dominick DiOrio to commemorate our 25th anniversary by creating the Dream A New World Trilogy. After the pandemic changed last season's plans, we are thrilled to announce CCW will debut during this work the Atlas INTERSECTIONS Festival 2022 on March 6th at 5pm!

Featuring three of our performing ensembles, this work connects dreaming, newness, and openness, and is grounded in hope and joy. Underpinned by longtime CCW supporter Katherine Kopp, the Trilogy celebrates the intersections within DC's rich cultural tapestry with the words of poets Elizabeth Alexander and Eloise Greenfield, dance choreography by Ashanté Green, and performed by Dance Institute of Washington (DIW) dancers.

In 2021, we debuted the first movement, "Daydreamers," during our 25th anniversary virtual gala. Our Advanced Bel Canto, Concert Chorus, and Young Men's Ensembles are thrilled to share the remaining movements, "To Catch a Fish" and Praise Song for the Day," during what promises to be an inspirational and reflective performance.

DIW will open this exciting program with their moving presentation of “Beauty," choreographed by Ashanté Green and performed by DIW dancers.
