SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17 | 7PM @HOLOCAUST MUSEUM HOUSTON
SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 18 | 2PM @ UNITY OF HOUSTON

Join Apollo for REVISED, a genre-fusing statement on poetry, peace, censorship, and Black revisionism. The concert features the world premiere of Revise? by award-winning poet, activist, and educator Deborah D.E.E.P Mouton and Emmy-winning composer Jasmine Barnes, with members of Houston Ebony Opera Guild, The Philip Hall Singers, and Houston Chamber Choir. 

The program also includes PAX (Peace), an Apollo commission from composer John Cornelius with Houston Poet Laureate Emeritus Outspoken Bean and vocalist Kenneth Gayle, and the premiere of a second commission by Texas A&M faculty composer Marty Regan, a work inspired by the internment of Japanese-Americans during WWII. 

A presentation of Beethoven’s famous ‘Cavatina’ from String Quartet Op. 130 illuminates the composer’s maverick musical activism and timeless affirmation of the human spirit.
