Honoring the 40th anniversary of the Syracuse Community Choir and the long-term relationship with Onondaga Nation. This is the first concert of our 40th anniversary season celebrating the profound interconnectedness of all living beings, inspired by the Indigenous teaching: All My Relations. It’s a phrase that speaks to the sacred bonds between people, the earth, and all that surrounds us—a call to remember that we are never alone, and never separate.

Through music and storytelling, this concert explores themes of unity, respect, and the ways our lives are interwoven—across generations, across species, and in rhythm with the Earth itself.

Join us on June 1 for a celebration of belonging, a call to connection, and an offering of hope for the path forward. Because we are all related. And we are strongest when we sing together.
