Join us for a powerful and moving evening as Pride Chorus Houston presents HerStory. Performed on International Women’s Day, this remarkable concert pays tribute to the incredible women who have shaped our world, highlighting their stories and contributions through the transformative power of music.
HerStory is more than just a concert—it’s a celebration of strength, resilience, and the diverse experiences of women across time and cultures. With a repertoire that spans a rich tapestry of genres and eras, the performance will feature both stirring anthems and intimate ballads, each carefully selected to honor the achievements and voices of women. Hear music from Nina Simone, Chappell Roan, and Alicia Keys, from shows like The Color Purple and Hamilton, plus the world premier of “Make Ready Your Beauty,” by noted composer Joan Szymko. Pride Chorus Houston is proud to have commissioned this piece. Inspired by the poetry of Elsa Gidlow, the American poet best known for writing On a Grey Thread (1923), the first volume of openly lesbian love poetry published in North America.
HerStory is a tribute to the women who have paved the way and those who continue to inspire change. Don’t miss this chance to experience a night of exceptional music and meaningful reflection, celebrating the incredible contributions of women throughout history and in our own lives.
