Chicago Sinfonietta’s annual MLK Tribute Concert is a beloved yearly tradition. This year, join us for an inspiring program full of power and intensity.
2021 Sphinx Medal of Excellence winner Carlos Simon’s piece was inspired by a journal entry from Beethoven in 1815, about the unpredictable nature of life - “But Fate now conquers; I am hers; and yet not she shall share in my renown; that life is left to every noble spirit. And that some great deed shall beget that all lives shall inherit.”
The concert continues with Valerie Colemans’s Umoja, the Swahili word for Unity and the first principal of the holiday Kwanzaa.
CS Artist in Residence Kathryn Bostic's newest commission-Letters From Moral Courage-encompasses the powerful impact from all types of people making a choice to abide in integrity, truth and fearlessness.
And the 200+ voices of the Apostolic Church of God Sanctuary Choir join the orchestra in an uplifting celebration of Dr. King and the important work that he inspires us to engage in every day.
