Concert: Boy Breaking Glass

Sunday, February 22nd, 2026
4:00 PM ET

General Admission: $20

Student Admission: $10

Celebrate Black History Month with Elevation, an all-professional, intentionally diverse vocal ensemble whose performances fuse traditional, classical choral music with jazz, Hip-Hop, R&B, storytelling, and spoken word.

This concert takes its name and inspiration from Gwendolyn Brooks’ searing poem, "Boy Breaking Glass," about a young Black boy who breaks a window, not out of vandalism, but as an act of protest and creation. The shattered glass becomes his art, a demand to be seen and heard in a world that has erased him. Through music that spans genres and idioms, we ask: What might it mean to build a future from the fragments? To lift every voice—not in support of the status quo, but in pursuit of justice, belonging, and joy.

Led by nationally recognized conductor Arreon A. Harley-Emerson, Elevation considers the vocal arts to be more than just singing and include the many ways the human voice is used in creative and artistic expressions. For this performance, they will be joined for a closing set of gospel music by participants of the workshop "Come Sunday: Worship and Music That Moves Us."

Come Sunday: Worship and Music That Moves Us is a two-day gathering of worship leaders, pastors, musicians, and creatives exploring the rich worship and music traditions of the Black diaspora. As the United States marks its 250th anniversary, this event invites us to reflect on how we worship in spirit and truth—celebrating cultural gifts while reckoning with injustice.
