This
5-movement, multi-media
choral drama honors one
of the great heroes of
the emancipation era. The
journey of those who
sacrificed becomes a
story we can relive and
honor. Dr. Kean's goal
was to compose and
arrange original music
and traditional
spirituals in a style
that is evocative of the
enslaved Africans' frame
of mind. The spirituals
are accompanied with
kalimba (thumb piano) to
honor the sub-Saharan
African musical tradition
of connecting with
ancestors and with the
marimba to sound like the
west African balafon.
This is a work that will
move an audience to
tears. Medium to
Advanced. The Journey of
Harriet Tubman has
generated a much needed
discussion of African
American enslavement and
and cultural
appropriation. The
composer has dedicated
half of his royalties
from this work to The
Equal Justice Initiative,
a private, 501(c)(3)
nonprofit organization
that is committed to
ending mass incarceration
and excessive punishment
in the United States, to
challenging racial and
economic injustice, and
to protecting basic human
rights for the most
vulnerable people in
American society. Please
