The Esoterics is excited to present a concert of new works by the African-American composer, Tara Mack. An avid choral singer for much of her life, Tara is currently a soprano in the London Oriana Choir. In 2019, inspired by her choir’s five-year project to promote women composers, Tara began to write choral music of her own. Since then, she has written, studied, and encouraged other choral musicians to compose. Her works have been commissioned and performed throughout the US and Europe, by such ensembles as: the Choral Arts Initiative, the New York City Master Chorale, the New Amsterdam Singers, the Wellspring Ensemble, C4, the Brown University Chorus, Inversion Ensemble, Vox Urbane, Austin Cantorum, Singing City, Junger Kammerchor Köln, and the Covent Garden Chorus.
