The following description comes from the event organizer.

The Way Home honors America’s cultural heritage in a way that seeks to foster a mutual respect for the values of all persons and groups—including immigrants and refugees—as well as enrich our humanity by broadening our understanding of ourselves. Music from trailblazing young composers such as Saunder Choi, Melissa Dunphy, Caroline Shaw, and Derrick Skye explore the peril and helplessness faced by many refugees, while songs from the beginning of the millennium connect similar experiences across human history.
