Dr. Catherine Roma Commissioning Project
The mission of the Dr. Catherine Roma Women Composer Commissioning Project is to fund new collaborations between GALA member choruses and women composers, resulting in new works that celebrate diversity, promote social justice, and stir the human spirit. The first composition project will be performed by 12 women’s choruses in their hometowns across North America between December 2015 and June 2016 and then performed as a mass chorus at the GALA Choruses Festival in Denver, Colorado July 2-6, 2016.
