Matthew Welch: Tomorrow’s Memories: A Little Manila Diary (world premiere SFGC commission)
About
SFGC concludes its season with the world premiere of Tomorrow’s Memories: A Little Manila Diary, a new SFGC-commissioned choral-opera from American composer Matthew Welch. A collaborative project two years in the making, this semi-staged work is based on the 1924-1928 diary writings of Filipina immigrant Angeles Monrayo and highlights the importance of the Filipino diaspora’s cultural impact throughout the United States, particularly in the Bay Area. Featured guest artists for this program include stage director Sean San José, guitarist Florante Aguilar, violinist Patti Kilroy and percussionist Levy Lorenzo.
Tomorrow's Memories: A Little Manila Diary is made possible thanks to generous support from Creative Work Fund, MAP Fund, and National Endowment for the Arts.
