Homage illuminates classical repertoire that have long been neglected by the musical establishment, written by five Black composers from Africa and the Diaspora: Bongani Ndodana-Breen, Undine Smith Moore, Frederick C. Tillis, Zenobia Powell-Perry, and Samuel Coleridge-Taylor.

Reviews & Press

"...a celebration of the indomitable spirit and resilience of the global Black community. Were Homage, a night at the concert hall, the feeling would be of a night inarguably well spent.”
