Cincinnati Song Initiative

Cincinnati Song Initiative was founded to bring a concentrated and cohesive source of art song to the greater Cincinnati area. Dedicated to providing unique experiences through the power of music and text, each performance creates a sense of relevance and active engagement between performers and audiences. Concerts take place at different venues throughout the Queen City in order to connect with its many vibrant communities and explore all it has to offer. Cincinnati Song Initiative remains devoted to the innovation of art song, commissioning and premiering new works to help lead the genre into the twenty-first century and connect more closely with today's audiences. CSI also leads the way in original digital content, constantly adding to its rich suite of resources such as educational webinars, live interviews with living composers, and innovative digital performance projects.
