The Peninsula Women's Chorus, under the direction of Dr. Martin Benvenuto, will partner with San Francisco based professional chorus Volti, the Piedmont East Bay Children's Choir Ensemble and Ancora, under the direction of Robert Geary. These choruses will present an afternoon of new music especially created for the unique sound of upper voices. The selections range from a multi-chorus mass piece to a fantastical Spanish fairytale and a song about modern female swashbucklers.=0D=0A=The Peninsula Women's Chorus, well known for its vibrant, compelling performances and dedication to musical excellence, is also committed to community outreach and the support of music programs for our local youth. This season, the chorus introduces its inaugural Mentorship Program (PWCMP). The program is open to high school girls with choral experience and a passion for learning new, advanced and innovative vocal literature. Each auditioned student is mentored by a PWC singer, attending rehearsals and offering them a unique opportunity to work with one of the best women's choruses in the country. Participation in this year's New Music for Treble Voices festival marks the culmination of the project.=0D=0A=Rebecca Wallace of the Palo Alto Weekly has written about the PWC, '...the sounds blended so purely, with such power and control.'
