Hear parlor songs, art songs, folk music, and spirituals of the African diaspora performed by soprano soloist Sonya Headlam and pianist Martin Néron. This lecture-recital highlights vocal music by composers of African heritage from the 18th century to the present day. The program includes pieces by Florence Price, Margaret Bonds, Peter Ashbourne, and others, as well as a powerful new work by Trevor Weston, Reflections. The latter brings the voice of African composer and abolitionist Ignatius Sancho to life with musical excerpts from his letters.
