Inspired by the words and actions of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., “We Shall Overcome” showcases music that moved and motivated generations of civil rights activists and defenders, interwoven with recordings of Dr. King’s electrifying speeches. A living lineage of music and culture, this performance celebrates both traditional and modern gospel, classical, jazz, Broadway, and spiritual genres. Prodigy, producer, and Sphinx Medal recipient Damien Sneed possesses a unique understanding of each genre, which allows him to fluidly cover so much musical ground in a single performance.
Tickets for school performance at 10 a.m. on March 3rd available by contacting Jonell Stoddard at Jonell_stoddard@byu.edu.
