Join Halcyon Chorale for an evening of music that honors the voices and visions of 20th and 21st century African American composers. This dynamic program features works that span genres and generations—from classical to gospel, from spirituals to soul—showcasing the profound influence of Black artistry on the American musical landscape.

Featuring compositions by Florence Price, Adolphus Hailstork, Joshuah Brian Campbell & Cynthia Erivo, Stevie Wonder, Rosephanye Powell, Ysaÿe Barnwell, William Dawson, Moses Hogan, and Bobby McFerrin, the concert weaves together a rich tapestry of sound, resilience, and cultural expression.
