This choral singing community performance is the culmination of the community masterclass sessions from Sunday 27 to Thursday 31 October will be led by Professor Gwen Moten (Music Director and Conductor, Count Basie Centre for Arts and New Jersey Symphony Gospel Chorus).

Gwen Moten, educator, singer, conductor, and United States Cultural Representative. takes audiences on a remarkable journey through history, blending both narrative and song. From the coded messages hidden in the songs of enslaved Africans to the anthems of the Civil Rights Movement, the music of Broadway, and the powerful tribal songs of Southern African folk traditions, Moten’s performance offers a sweeping historical exploration.
