LOCAL CLASSICAL – BLACK MUSIC MONTH

May 31, 2021

Local Classical Featured Playlist – 05/31/21 – 06/27/21

Since 1979, June has been known as Black Music Month. In the classical music world, black artists are so often underrepresented. In this month’s playlist, we’ll be highlighting music by black composers, soloists, conductors, and more. This playlist has selections spanning from the 17th century to today. Our new Musicologist in Residence, Joshua Thompson, helped shape this diverse playlist.

Connect with Classical Music Indy’s Local Classical channel for our Black Music Month playlist.
