“A fierce tide of feeling—rage and despair, love and hope and exaltation.” —New York TimesA conversation between two Black luminaries unfolds in this musical performance, the latest evolution of Grammy winner Meshell Ndegeocello’s study of writer and activist James Baldwin. A forerunner of the neo soul movement, Ndegeocello traverses genres in her work. Jazz and gospel come to the fore as she delivers a theatrical live rendition of No More Water: The Gospel of James Baldwin, her 2024 album released on its namesake’s 100th birthday. Her songs pose existential questions about love and collective understanding. Experience a celebratory and transformative musical experience as Ndegeocello draws on traditions of worship and testimony.
Presented in association with the Dakota.
