Samantha is thrilled to perform in her hometown of Alexandria, Virginia with acclaimed scholar, pianist, and soprano Dr. Louise Toppin. The “Seminar Recital” is an innovative performance format created by the Singing Justice Collaboratory that combines a recital, focus group, and lecture into one. Casting musical performance as an act of research and including listeners as collaborative participants in the creation of knowledge, this seminar recital on Negro Spirituals will be an immersive experience not to be missed.
