Magnolia Chorale Presents “Lift Every Voice and Sing”

Magnolia Chorale, led by Artistic Director Joseph To, presents spring concerts themed “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” after the historic African-American anthem written in 1900 by James Weldon Johnson (lyrics) and his brother Rosamond (music). Inspired by this year’s 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, the program presents a multicultural perspective of the universal longing for hope, peace, and freedom. The Chorale will sing pieces drawn from a multitude of voices, including African-American composer Florence Price, Cree-Dene composer Sherryl Sewepagaham, Venezuelan composer Carlos Cordero, and more.

Tickets available online and at the door.
