Bay Area Children’s Choir Creates Community Celebration for Black History Month

SEE EVENT DETAILS
Berkeley, CA - Kairos Music Academy, a childrens' choir with a thirty-year history of community-building through song is celebrating Black History with a livestream feature of the choir's Black Lives Matter Young Artist Series. Even in isolation, voices ring out. In collaboration with powerful young women from the Kairos Choir community, the tribute honors Black artists, and engages the audience through choral music to open hearts for positive change. The compact three-part BLM Young Artist series shares a journey: 1. Artists Bring Down Walls; 2. Roots, Rage & Risings; and 3. Remembering Who We Are - with readings, poetry and a panel discussion on bringing people together through music and the arts, moderated by Dwight Casimere, and featuring Julia Chigamba, Founder and Director of the Chinyakare Ensemble and Visiting Artist at Kairos, and Howard Wiley, East Bay Center for the Performing Arts Jazz Faculty Chair and Richmond Jazz Collective Co-Director.
