Gospel Goes Classical

What is Gospel Goes Classical?

Gospel Goes Classical is a ground-breaking, one-night-only musical presentation featuring the Dallas Symphony Orchestra and Grammy Award Winner Marvin Winans. The Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center will be the backdrop for an unprecedented evening, blending gospel with the classical sounds of a 60-piece orchestra and a 200 voice choir. Proceeds from Gospel Goes Classical will benefit Project Unity. What unites us is greater than what divides us.

Gospel Goes Classical will be performed at the beginning of Black History Month on Thursday, February 7, 2019. The Dallas Symphony Orchestra will be conducted by Jeri Lynne Johnson, founder and artistic director of the Black Pearl Chamber Orchestra, a professional orchestra in Philadelphia. The featured artist will be Grammy Award Winner and Pastor Marvin L. Winans from Perfecting Church in Detroit, Michigan, and member of the famed Winans family gospel singers.
