Another Octave is grateful for support from . . .
As a women’s chorus founded by lesbians and currently family to over 50 women and gender nonconforming folks from a variety of backgrounds, Another Octave celebrates diversity and condemns discrimination - overt, unconscious, and systemic. We recognize that our mission of giving voice to the lived experiences of all women includes that of BIPOC and trans women. We strive to be a community that uplifts the voices of the marginalized and celebrates rather than appropriates.
I’m a black ocean, leaping and wide,
Welling and swelling I bear in the tide.
Leaving behind nights of terror and fear
I rise
Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear
I rise
