Charlotte Children's Choir Concert With Damien Sneed

Overview

The Charlotte Children’s Choir of Community School of the Arts will hold their Spring Concert with Damien Sneed on Saturday, May 9 at 7:00pm at First Baptist Church-West, and will feature songs and stories of “Faces and Places” around the world. This partnership is made possible with support from the Knight Foundation. Through folksongs, jazz, classical repertoire, spirituals, hymns, and contemporary arrangements, the singers will take you on a musical journey. The central piece of the concert, “It’s Freedom” from Duke Ellington’s Sacred Suite, will be an exciting collaboration between Damien Sneed and the singers of the Charlotte Children’s Choir. Our musical journey will end with “Everyone Has a Place” from Wynton Marsalis’s Abyssinian Mass.  The event is free and open to the public, but tickets must be reserved online through Carolina Tix and will be required.
