Listen "DuBois Credo: Two Versions Set To Music. On Staccato"
Episode Synopsis
The Grammy winning choral group, Conspirare, is celebrating Black History Month with two concerts focusing on the words of African-American activist W.E.B. DuBois. He wrote his Credo in 1904. Years later, composer Margaret Bonds put it to music. In another program, Conspirare will sing composer Benedict Sheehan’s new movement, honoring DuBois’ words, to his Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom. Craig Hella Johnson, Conspirare’s Artistic Director and Conductor says this is the beginning of exposing more works by neglected composers.
