The Charlotte Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Music Director Kwamé Ryan, presents Gabriel Kahane's emergency shelter intake form as the centerpiece of its season finale concert. The oratorio-style work for voices and orchestra examines homelessness, displacement, and economic precarity, drawing on language from the shelter intake process, personal reflection, and poetry. In collaboration with Roof Above, the CSO has assembled a local chorus of individuals directly affected by homelessness or housing instability, grounding the performance in lived experience. The concerts mark the culmination of the Charlotte Symphony's season-long exploration of the meaning of home and Kahane's tenure as the 2025–26 Spotlight Artist.
