The
Philadelphia Orchestra’s Martin Luther King Jr. Concert, first
presented in 1991, reflects the beliefs and convictions of the famed
civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr., and combines the traditions
of African-American culture and Western classical music. The concert
pays tribute to Dr. King’s religious beliefs, his vision of a society
free of prejudice and racial divisions, and his belief in the power of
music to effect change.
The concert is free but tickets are required
and will be made available on January 6, 2016, at philorch.org. This
concert will also be broadcast live on WRTI 90.1 FM.
