This year’s production will continue to honor the rich musical traditions that originated on the African continent, endured the horrors of slavery, and became a source of strength and resistance. From the rise of Negro Spirituals to the evolution of blues, jazz, gospel, R&B, hip-hop, and spoken word, Songs of Black Folk showcases how Black music has shaped and influenced culture worldwide.
More than a performance, Songs of Black Folk 2025 is a testament to the resilience of a people who have turned struggle into song. Through music, we connect the fight for freedom, justice, and dignity with the shared struggles of marginalized communities, reminding us all of the enduring power of art to inspire change.
The 2025 production features the gifts of J’Nai Bridges, Zebulon Ellis, Soloman Howard and Savion Glover under the artistic direction of Ramon Bryant Braxton.
