ABOUT THE CONCERT

Resonance welcomes back the iconic a cappella ensemble Sweet Honey in the Rock, known for their singular blend of vocal power, spiritual grounding, and deep-rooted calls for justice. These matriarchs of musical resistance return for two special performances—culminating in the world premiere of a new work commissioned especially for this season, created for Resonance and Sweet Honey to perform together.

The program opens with Resonance Ensemble, followed by a featured set by Sweet Honey in the Rock, and concludes with the debut of this powerful new collaborative piece.
