Orchestra of St. Luke’s + Joseph Parrish: Finding an American Voice: Burleigh and Dvořák

14 May @ 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm
Free

Orchestra of St. Luke’s (OSL), joined by baritone Joseph Parrish, celebrates the friendship between Harry T. Burleigh, the pioneering Black American composer, and Antonín Dvořák, the renowned Czech composer that began when the two men met in 1892. Their collaboration, rooted in spirituals and folk music, helped shape a distinctly American sound that continues to inspire us today.

OSL brings that story to the Flushing Town Hall, joined by baritone Joseph Parrish in a program that weaves Burleigh’s original songs and spiritual arrangements with Dvořák’s Violin Sonatina in G Major–music born from the same conversation, performed together in Queens.

This concert is part of Five Boroughs Music Festival’s season finale tour, with OSL performing the same program across all five NYC boroughs: Hostos Community College (BRONX), Snug Harbor Cultural Center (STATEN ISLAND), Brooklyn Public Library, New York Public Library (MANHATTAN), and Flushing Town Hall (QUEENS).
