Sphinx Virtuosi | Songs for Our Times
Sphinx Virtuosi’s Debut Album
Out Digitally on Deutsche Grammophon
This debut album represents the rich history of the Sphinx Organization and the vibrant future of classical music by centering the artistry of extraordinary composers and artistic visionaries of color.
Focused on increasing representation of Black and Latinx artists in classical music and recognizing artistic excellence, Sphinx is a leading national social justice and arts organization with the mission of transforming lives through the power of diversity in the arts.
Now in its 27th year of programming, Sphinx envisions a world where the classical music field looks like our communities: where every young person has the opportunity to express themselves and learn classical music; where audiences reflect the people we see on our streets; and where leadership—on stage and off—includes all deserving voices. With 1,100 alumni, a digital reach of 60 million through social media and other online platforms, and more than $10 million invested in the careers of Black and Latinx classical musicians, Sphinx has followed a vision to empower its premiere touring ensemble, Sphinx Virtuosi, to lead the way in evolving the classical music canon.
