Setnor student organists and choral ensembles celebrate Black History History month with a concert of uplifting music in a variety of styles. This program features African-American spiritual settings by Moses Hogan, Rollo Dillworth, and Undine Smith Moore; anthems by David Hurd and Christopher Harris; organ solos by Florence Price and Adolphus Hailstork; and Carl Haywood’s stirring organ toccata on “We Shall Overcome.”

“Music and Message” is the popular weekly series from Hendricks Chapel that features musical performances and spoken reflection from diverse religious and spiritual perspectives. These gatherings seek to nurture the soul and ignite the spirit, and we invite all students, faculty, staff, and community members for another season of inspiration.
