BECAUSE HERE WE STAND

Best Contemporary Classical Composition

“Because Here We Stand” is a symphonic depiction of humanity's emotional and physical struggle during the COVID 19 pandemic. A triumphant musical tribute to the women of science and medicine concludes this track, along with a tender homage to the millions lost to the virus. Conducted by Grammy-winner Amy Andersson and performed by the Latvia Studio Orchestra, Because Here We Stand is a proud, new addition to the Women Warriors: The Voices of Change album.
