PostClassical Ensemble Concert

PostClassical Ensemble in partnership with Howard University and the Coalition for African Americans in the Performing Arts explores the roots of Black classical music, from the sorrow songs. to the spiritual arrangements of composer Harry Burleigh and the musical prophecies of Antonin Dvorak. With music by Burleigh, Florence Price and Margaret Bonds, and readings from W. E. B. Du Bois and Langston Hughes, we look back at the founders of Black classical music, recall their words, and listen to their music. Featuring the world premiere of Price’s “Octet for Brasses and Piano”

This concert is the first of three in PCE’s season-long project, The Rediscovery and Renewal of Black Classical Music, and will be held at All Souls Church:
