Music From Home: Music by Black Composers Active in the United States

Music From Home is Lakewold’s monthly series of intimate chamber music concerts held in the historic Wagner House. For the 2024 season, Lakewold Gardens is pleased to present Sounds of the Homelands. The first of the season’s American Focus subset, this concert features music by contemporary African American composers. Soprano Ellaina Lewis, Robert Murphy (violin) and Kim Davenport (piano) will perform pieces by Dorothy Rudd Moore, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, Richard Thompson and more. University of Puget Sound faculty member and musicologist Gwynne Brown will offer an introductory talk about the music.
