The flute is widely known for its beauty but this program explores a darker side of its voice. In this performance, six flute players come together to explore themes of identity, genocide, sexual violence, and redemption.

20% of the proceeds from this show will go to the Oregon Coalition Against Domestic and Sexual Violence. More info: https://www.ocadsv.org/
