Our final finalist, Shruthi Rajasekar, couldn’t be with us tonight because she’s in Minnesota. Thank goodness we have modern communication technology. Shruthi is on FaceTime listening to us sing her piece and giving us feedback!

Great to see our @Orianafive15 project to promote women composers mentioned in a couple of articles by @BWV2 featuring the work of Ailsa Dixon. The Choir gave the world premiere of Ailsa's anthem 'These things shall be' shortly before her death in 2017. https://t.co/7svfuheKe7
