Wagner Ensemble to Present LIFT EVERY VOICE: A Juneteenth Celebration
The concert will be held June 8, 2025 at 4pm at St. Francis de Sales Church.
The Wagner Ensemble, under the direction of Jeannine Wagner, will present Lift Every Voice: A Juneteenth Celebration, featuring Missa Luba, a setting of the Latin Mass arranged by Guido Haazan in Congolese style for mixed chorus and percussion. The program also showcases works by Michal Dawson Connor, Nathaniel Dett, J. Rosamond Johnson, Kevin A. Memley, and Florence Price.
