Generating an infusion of new music by women on orchestra stages over the next several seasons, the League of American Orchestras will commission orchestral works from six women composers and form a consortium of thirty U.S. orchestras to perform the works across the country (five orchestras will be paired with each composer) – Broadway World
Arlene Sierra's commission will be premiered by the Detroit Symphony. An additional four orchestras will perform the work through the 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 seasons, part of a 30-orchestra consortium performing works by women composers commissioned by the League of American Orchestras with the generous support of the Virginia B. Toulmin Foundation.
