Program Description
An entertaining, informative, and eye-opening new show that celebrates the rich tapestry of African American music, from Spirituals, Gospel, and Jazz to Soul, Hip-Hop, and R&B. Students will gain insight into the origins, evolution, and cultural significance of each genre, tracing their influences through time. The show addresses the impact of racism on musical styles and artists alike, while exploring the immense contributions and influence of African American musicians and their music. This is done through stories and musical examples, along with interactive moments that teach musical concepts like vocal runs, rhythm and beatboxing - all done in Ball in the House’s signature a cappella style.
