"Lift Every Voice and Sing" performed by Ellaina Lewis and Gretchen Yanover

To honor Juneteenth this year, chorus member Ellaina Lewis and cellist Gretchen Yanover performed a unique arrangement of "Lift Every Voice and Sing," counterposed with themes from "America the Beautiful."

"Lift Every Voice and Sing" was composed in 1900 by brothers James Weldon Johnson and John Rosamond Johnson and has taken on a deep and enduring cultural significance as the Black National Anthem, with its message hope and liberty for Black Americans.

FROM HIS HEART’S DEEP CORE: THE MUSIC OF RICHARD THOMPSON AND OTHERS INSPIRED BY THE LIFE AND WRITING OF PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR

Seattle Opera favorites Martin Bakari (A Thousand Splendid Suns) and Ellaina Lewis (Blue) team up with Tacoma pianist Joe Williams (last here with tenor Joshua Stewart in 2022) for a special night of opera, classical art song, and jazz. The program will feature music from Richard Thompson and other composers, including settings of Paul Laurence Dunbar’s poetry, which has resonated with and inspired artists for generations across many musical genres.
