Rising by the American group Lyyra is a genre-defying album that showcases the multifaceted beauty of all-women a cappella. Through a program of songs dating from the 21st century to as far back as the medieval times, the six upper-voice singers explore ageless themes of joy, hope, resilience, and togetherness. "Not bound by genre or style, the songs instead revolve around timeless questions of love and identity that speak to us as young American women today - the pressures we face, the joys we find, and the strength we hold in a common purpose."
