The program features a performance of Where Every Voice Is Heard, under the direction of Dr. Jeffery Watson, the composer.  Dr. Watson’s four-part suite, which premiered during CHAW’s 30th Anniversary Year, combines adult and children voices in a powerful and charming affirmation of building community through the arts.  Chorus members hail from the Capitol Hill and the greater DC community.  Capitol Hill Youth Chorus, part of the CHAW Youth Arts Program, will offer the voices of the children.
