Gateways Music Festival

Gateways Radio, the concert series celebrating the artistry of musicians of African descent, opens its new season with a powerful work by Edgar Redmond. Transition in Black reflects on struggle, resilience, and the ongoing journey toward hope.

An eloquent storyteller, Loki Karuna spoke with Suzanne about his weekly podcast TRILLOQUY, his job as Director of Artist Equity of the American Composers Orchestra, and his nationally- syndicated radio programs The Sound of 13 and Gateways Radio.

Today's Beautiful Music is from the 2019 Gateways Music Festival -- a dynamic performance of Carlos Simon's AMEN! by the Gateways Music Festival Orchestra conducted by Michael Morgan, at Kodak Hall at Eastman Theatre in Rochester, NY.
