ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Through poetry, spoken word, song, and movement, VOICES 21C presents WALLS COME TUMBLIN' DOWN, a powerful program centered on sanctuary.
Working across artistic forms, the ensemble shares stories forged in conditions of threat and care, safety and exile, drawing on lived experiences shaped by surveillance, displacement, and confinement. Grounded in the urgency of the present moment, WALLS COME TUMBLIN' DOWN engages themes of immigration enforcement, freedom in many forms, and the realities faced by incarcerated individuals and their loved ones.
Some material is candid, emotionally intense, and engages directly with political realities. We share this in advance so audiences have a clear sense of the nature of the program and no one feels caught off guard.
At its heart, this concert is an invitation to bear witness to the lived experiences of others, especially those who are marginalized, displaced, or unseen, and to share space with one another as we grapple with what it means to live faithfully and humanely in these times.
ABOUT THE ENSEMBLE
VOICES 21C is a Boston-based choral artists collective that seeks to combine high technical proficiency with creativity and compassion. The ensemble exercises choral art in pursuit of human rights with collaborators across borders and behind prison walls.
VOICES 21C blends the choral art with imaginative and innovative practices, borrowing from kinesthetic art and theatre. VOICES 21C is a welcoming space for LGBTQIA+, committed to contemporary composers, and to improvisational, interdisciplinary modes of performance through a co- creating, egalitarian consensus model.
