<a href="https://www.womensing.org/truth" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.womensing.org/truth</a>WomenSing’s Spring concert explores one of the most urgent questions of our time: how do we discern what is real in an age of algorithms, deepfakes, and information bubbles?​

Through music that is haunting, thought-provoking, and deeply human, the program invites listeners to reflect on truth, perception, and the forces that shape what we believe. Vienna Teng’s The Hymn of Acxiom offers a mesmerizing and unsettling meditation on how technology listens, learns, and quietly influences our lives. Marie-Claire Saindon’s satirical flat earth exposes the absurdities of fake news and “alternative facts,” playfully questioning the reliability of our senses in a post-truth era. In contrast, Susan LaBarr’s luminous Where the Light Begins reminds us that truth often emerges quietly, like the first light of dawn, calling us to listen inward and seek clarity amid the noise.<a href="https://www.womensing.org/truth" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a>​

Together, these beautiful works invite us to pause, question, and rediscover the courage to pursue what is real.
