Eric Conway: National HBCU Choir performs Lift Every Voice and Sing!

Dr. Eric Conway writes on September 23, 2020:

This evening, A national HBCU choir unveiled their enormous project of gathering the forces of choir members from all the HBCUs in the country, of which there were as many as one hundred and five many years ago, to perform an anthem that is very close to the hearts of all who ever attended an HBCU: Roland Carter's arrangement of "Lift Every Voice and Sing". Please take the time to listen to this performance when over 105 voices are gathered all adorning their university attire to a magnificent rendition of the Negro National Anthem as decreed by the NAACP!
Bravo Tutti!!!
