LIFT EV’RY VOICE
A Celebration of Brotherhood & Sisterhood
August 5 – August 7, 2022

Join us for this powerful musical journey from 1622 to 2022. Music of Monteverdi meets a startling new composition by Black composer Jonathan Woody. A suite by the amazing 18th-century Black composer Joseph Bologne leads to soulful spirituals from the Civil War. Soloists, instruments, and children’s voices join in this uplifting celebration of brotherhood and sisterhood. We shall overcome!
“Reginald Mobley… pure of tone, immaculate in his articulation and always musical.”
– THE HERALD (UK)
“Ashlee Foreman is a real discovery… tremendous range and theatrical assurance.”
– SEEN & HEARD INTERNATIONAL (UK)
