Suffrage Cantata with Schola Cantorum

MSU's Department of Music is presenting a choral performance of "Suffrage Cantata" featuring members of the university's Schola Cantorum.

Renowned international composer Andrea Ramsey and African American historian Marcia Chatelain said this work is about "a distinct moment in history, but it was also composed during a critical moment in history. The music and texts capture the struggle for suffrage among women who were separated by the color line, but united in an understanding of the importance of women having the capacity to participate as full and equal citizens."

Hail State!
