Anthony Brown in Concert
March 5, 2023 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
ELPC’s Cathedral Concerts series will present I Go On Singing: Paul Robeson’s Life in Word and Song by Anthony Brown, baritone, on Sunday, March 5, 3 pm.
I Go On Singing tells Paul Robeson’s story in his own words, using many first-hand accounts from his autobiography, Here I Stand. The multi-media musical documentary traces his humble beginnings as a preacher’s son in Princeton, New Jersey, to his international celebrity as an advocate for peace and justice.
The performance will bring music and history alive with equal parts documentary and live concert experience. Musical numbers range from spirituals to Broadway, and include Robeson’s original arrangements of favorites like “Wade in the Water,” “Ol’ Man River,” “It Ain’t Necessarily So,” “Water Boy,” and many others.
The concert is free, but a freewill offering will be received. Contact Dr. Ed Moore for details.
