Semillas
High school students from Chicago and Minneapolis came together virtually in 2020-21 to participate in “¡Cantaré! Connections,” a joint project of VocalEssence and Chicago a cappella. For the finale to the program, composer Julio Morales of Veracruz, Mexico, led the students in this virtual performance of his piece “Semillas.”
