The Make Them Hear You concert series is back with Volume 4 of Ode to Black Musicals!
Join us as we continue to celebrate the sweet and soulful sound that is Black Musicals. We’ll be featuring songs from Black Musicals written by Black creative teams both past and present – continuing to showcase music from In Dahomey, the first full-length musical written and performed by Black artists to play Broadway. Shuffle Along with us as we explore the music and history of those who came before us while exploring some new sounds along the way. Come out and hear some favorites, be introduced to new music, and walk away with a new playlist. Music direction by Jarred Lee.
