We Shall Overcome

Inspired by the words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., experience a joyful celebration from across the African American music traditions that electrified generations of civil rights activists. Highly-respected arranger and composer, Damien Sneed, fluidly moves from Aretha Franklin and Wynton Marsalis to Duke Ellington and Stevie Wonder; from Nina Simone and Donny Hathaway to traditional spirituals and “The Wiz.”
