SOCO WOMEN'S CHORUS SPRING CONCERT

MAY 2 & 3 | FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH OF AUSTIN

A night of choral music that reaches for the stars - Bowie, The Beatles, Esenvalds, Soundgarden, Sara Bareilles, and more.

SoCo Women's Chorus presents SPACE - a spring concert featuring bold reimaginings of beloved songs alongside acclaimed contemporary choral works, all inspired by the cosmos.

Hear fresh choral arrangements of David Bowie's "Space Oddity," The Beatles' "Across the Universe," Soundgarden's "Black Hole Sun," Sara Bareilles' "Gravity," "Moon River" -- plus Eriks Esenvalds' breathtaking "Stars," Marie-Claire Saindon's "The Girl With The Numbers" (the story of NASA pioneer Katherine Johnson, as told in Hidden Figures), and Austin-based composer Ritika Bhattacharjee's "The Infinity of Space." It will be a night for choral fans and first-timers alike.

ASL-Accessible Seating: Both the Saturday and Sunday concerts will have a designated seating section with clear visibility of an American Sign Language (ASL) Interpreter. This option is available for all ticket types. You will be asked at checkout if you or your party require ASL seating. (The checkbox appears just AFTER you pay and click "Place Order".)

SoCo Women’s Chorus is an auditioned community treble chorus based in Austin, Texas. Led by Artistic Director Lisa Sunset Holt, our nonprofit chorus is made up of approximately 100 talented singers from diverse backgrounds and musical abilities. We welcome singers of all gender identities with voices in the treble range - soprano and alto.

We are students, teachers, lawyers, business owners, mentors, caregivers, healthcare professionals, musicians, managers, and retirees. We honor our diversity of ages, ethnicities, sexual orientations, gender identities, spiritual beliefs, and abilities.

We celebrate our common love for creating and sharing music for our community, performing songs that range from medieval to contemporary, from western to global, and from classical to folk. The chorus was established in 2012 by Founding Artistic Director Janey Ryan.
