Guiding Principles

We are moving very intentionally into the future with a clear set of values and plans.

Vision

Harmony In Union With Humanity.

Mission

To create unity between and among artists and communities, by sharing deeply human vocal harmony.

Strategies

1. Enliven the organization’s culture of authenticity, openness and empowerment.

2. Build the skills and personal accountability of artists.

3. Continuously develop a deeper understanding of equity and interdependence, so as to grow as an inclusive organization.

4. Create art that deeply connects humans through music and text.

5. Develop projects, performances, programs and partnerships that propel and amplify the vision.

6. Develop leadership opportunities and operational excellence to ensure sustainability and growth.

Opening up our artistic platforms to all voices is not enough.  We are not only transforming our artistic choices and methods, but also completely retooling our governance, operational systems, financial model, marketing and cultural traditions to be equity-conscious, representative and authentic.  We expect that this journey will span years, if not decades.
