Arturo O’Farrill‘s The Cornel West Concerto is a tour-de-force musical and oratorical plea for justice, love, and respect… with text by Dr. Cornel West – based on questions proposed by W.E.B. Dubois at the turn of the 20th Century – questions as relevant today (if not more so) as they were then:

How shall Integrity face Oppression? What shall Honesty do in the face of Deception, Decency in the face of Insult, Self-Defense before Blows?  What shall Virtue do to meet Brute Force?

This is genuinely powerful music. These are truly important ideas. Dr. West’s inspiring performance with Arturo and the Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra will send chills through you, bring tears to your eyes, and joy to your heart.

We need your support to finish editing and mixing the album!
