Humanities Room 112

Classical guitarist Daniel Olszewski infuses each performance with an attention-grabbing mix of zeal and enthusiasm. His distinct approach to musical arrangements transforms audiences through an unexpected journey of fun and fascination!

This concert, "El Tanguero," is a heartfelt tribute to the timeless art of Argentine Tango, featuring compositions by renowned masters such as Astor Piazzolla, Jose Luis Merlin and Carlos Guastavino, with a special tribute to Piazzolla by Maximo Diego Pujol. Within the program, the movements of Piazzolla's seminal work, "Four Seasons of Buenos Aires," create structural touchstones as listeners are guided through the passionate rhythms, intricate harmonies and profound emotional depth of Argentinian art music.

AACC Concert Choir and AACC Chamber Singers Concert
Tuesday, Nov. 4
7:30 p.m.
Humanities Room 112

W.E.B. Du Bois’ "Credo," one of the most iconic texts of the Civil Rights movement before Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech, is the inspiration for our concert. While we will not be performing "Credo," Du Bois’ masterpiece presents a strategy of dual-perspective, with verbiage of racial harmony and scriptural imagery of children in green pastures beside still waters – language designed to convince skeptical whites that Du Bois was committed to a racial harmony founded in the Judeo-Christian institutions they professed to adhere to. "Credo" is nested in fierce pride in Black lineage and self, condemnation of war, and (most importantly) the overarching thesis that racial equality and justice are divinely ordained, not granted by humans, let alone white society.

We will perform two arrangements of Rollo Dilworth, D.M.A., (head of Choral Activities at Temple University) and featuring two works by Jasmine Barnes (Morgan State University alumni) performed by fellow Morgan alum Alexandria Crichlow. Crichlow will join the AACC Choirs in a reprise of "City Called Heaven," which we performed together two years ago on our "We Are" concert with choirs from Crofton, Northeast and Southern high schools.
