We'll explore the work of Harry T. Burleigh, whose groundbreaking arrangements of spirituals, and influential relationship with Antonin Dvorak, helped shape our country's musical identity and cement the spiritual as one of America's most significant and inherently complicated forms of music. Featuring a new work from 2024 Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Tyshawn Sorey, along with Frederick Tillis' seminal Wade in the Water from Spiritual Fantasy No. 12, CODED uncovers the intended messages of the people who birthed these songs, revealing their hidden metaphors, and how those hidden meanings continue to compound and evolve |
