We (virtually) sat down with composer, David Das, to ask him more about his composing style, inspirations, and what moved him to compose “Go Down, Death.”

Giving Tuesday 2024: A 20th Anniversary Celebration
Giving Tuesday 2024
November 2024
Giving Tuesday 2024 is December 3rd — a time when we champion the organizations, causes, and communities that mean the most to us.
For 20 years, our journey as an arts non-profit has been possible because of the unwavering support of our dedicated audiences and talented singers. We simply wouldn't exist without the generous contributions we've received over the last 2 decades and the tireless dedication of our all-volunteer members, officers, and board.
To commemorate this wonderful achievement, we hope you'll consider making a gift in honor of our 20th Anniversary season this year and to help us reach our Giving Tuesday goal of $5,000. Consider:
Making an early tax-deductible donation to the 18th Street Singers now through Giving Tuesday
Setting up a monthly tax-deductible donation to carry your support through the coming year
Visiting our 20th anniversary page to learn more about this season's goals
No gift is too small to make an impact--your tax-deductible donation will help us commission new pieces, support up and coming composers, fund each season's music, and to underwrite the student tickets that are always free for our concert.
