About Balance Campaign
Balance Campaign is a Washington, D.C.-based contemporary classical sextet that advocates for equal representation in new music. The group commissions marginalized composers residing in Washington, Baltimore, and Virginia.
The ensemble believes in using relevant programming as a force for change. It recently recorded and released its first commission, “ANIMAL” by Nathan Lincoln de Cusatis, which addresses issues on climate change and humanity’s innate tendency toward self-destruction.
These performances are supported in part by the Maryland State Arts Council. Visit https://www.msac.org/ for more details.
