In 1939, contralto Marian Anderson faced a pivotal moment in history when she performed at the Lincoln Memorial after being barred from Constitution Hall due to her race. Her powerful voice resonated in the open air and with the American spirit, transcending barriers. Join us for a special screening of Voice of Freedom, a compelling documentary that weaves together Anderson’s remarkable life and this historic event, while exploring fundamental questions of talent, race, fame, democracy and the American soul.
Dr. Louise Toppin, Professor of Music and University Diversity & Social Transformation Professor at the University of Michigan School of Music, Theatre and Dance, with a focus on opera singer and groundbreaking civil rights pioneer Marian Anderson, will be performing works that were touched by Anderson’s life.
Following her performance and screening of the film, Dr. Toppin will participate in a special Q&A session moderated by Dr. Kori Hill, Chair of the CSO’s Multicultural Awareness Council (MAC).
This program is free and open to the public, but space is limited. Reservations are required.
Artists:
Dr. Louise Topin, vocalist
Dr. Kori Hill, moderator
Venue:
Wilks Studio
