The Anna H. Wang Concert Series presents GRAMMY Award-winning and world-renowned bass opera singer Morris Robinson for a curated, one-night concert linking two musical genres, covering opera during the show’s first half and Black gospel in the second half.

Patrick Lundry & The Ministers of Music and more. The Anna H. Wang Concert Series will also host two public events in the days leading up to and following the concert, including a public forum in partnership with Maryland-based Coalition for African Americans in the Performing Arts (CAAPA) featuring Morris Robinson and Brandie Sutton on January 31 at 11:00 a.m. at the CAAPA Cultural Center in Fort Washington, Md. and two free masterclasses, with Brandi Sutton on February 1 at Howard University and with Morris Robinson on February 2 at Washington Adventist University.
