Sold Out - Fisk Jubilee Singers®

The Fisk JUBILEE SINGERS® are vocal artists and students at Fisk University in Nashville, TN., who sing and travel worldwide. They broke racial barriers in the US and abroad in the late 19th century and entertained Kings and Queens in Europe. At the same time, they raised money in support of their beloved school. In 1999, the Fisk JUBILEE SINGERS® were featured in JUBILEE SINGERS: Sacrifice and Glory, a PBS award-winning television documentary series, produced by WGBH/Boston. In July 2007, the Fisk JUBILEE SINGERS® went on a sacred journey to Ghana at the invitation of the U.S. Embassy. It was a history making event, as the ensemble traveled to Ghana for the first time and joined in the celebration of the nation’s Golden JUBILEE, the 50th independence anniversary. In 2008, the Fisk JUBILEE SINGERS® were selected as a recipient of the 2008 National Medal of Arts, the nation's highest honor for artists and patrons of the arts.
