About the Event

Women’s chamber chorus, Sorelle San Diego, will present What Was I Made For?, a spring concert on Saturday, May 10 at 4:30 p.m. at San Dieguito United Methodist Church in Encinitas. Directed by Michelle Risling and accompanied by Anna Juliar, Sorelle will perform compelling choral works that explore the various purposes people find in their own lives.

The concert will begin with What Was I Made For?, a ballad by Billie Eilish O’Connell and Finneas O’Connell. Offering answers to that eternal question, additional pieces include Andrea Ramsey’s Crowded Table, which depicts the joy in welcoming others, and To Sit and Dream, by Rosephanye Powell and with words by Langston Hughes, a jazz-influenced song that urges us to reach towards dreams of a more equitable world. Closing out the program is Michael John Trotta’s Caritas Abundat, written for women by Hildegard of Bingen and exploring what we can do for our planet. The concert also features works by Kim André Arnesen, Francis Poulenc and Dale Trumbore.
