Da Camera’s 15/16 season, Snapshots: Time and Place, celebrates music’s power to evoke time and place. The season kicks off with Snapshots of America, a compelling look at the American landscape as experienced through music.

This festive all-star opening night features legendary soprano and five-time Grammy Award winner Dawn Upshaw, noted pianist Gilbert Kalish, the celebrated ensemble So Percussion and a stellar Da Camera ensemble made up of leading Houston musicians and Da Camera Young Artists in a program of works by American composers Aaron Copland, Charles Ives and George Crumb.
