Voice of My People

This groundbreaking mass setting explores the various ways in which musical genres within the African diaspora articulate the cultural expressions of Blackness. The various parts of the mass are unified with the understanding that Black people are not monolithic in their understanding of self or cultural expression. Each movement highlights a different musical style reflecting African culture: gospel, jazz, chant, reggaeton, Afro-Cuban music, and RB. The Sanctus (Mtakatifu) is set in Kiswahili to represent African language and culture. A truly beautiful expression of diversity.
