This final gathering is the culmination of the 2026 “More Than A Song” Gospel Music Week featuring Frédéricka Petit-Homme and collaborators Myrtle Thomas and Alexandre Paquette, curated by Marika Galea and Dr. Andrée Dagenais. This celebration will feature the BU choir, chorale and small jazz ensembles in a collaborative musical performance. Please see the attached graphic for the full schedule of the week’s events.“We are very excited to host Frédéricka Petit-Homme and collaborators Myrtle Thomas and Alexandre Paquette in the School of Music,” said Professor Marika Galea. “As the host of CBC’s Choral Concert, a versatile performer, educator and researcher, the scope of Frédéricka’s work is unique and captivating. Dr. Andrée Dagenais and I have been working on cultivating this hands-on learning opportunity for our students for quite some time. I am looking to Tuesday afternoon’s Out of Bounds research presentation on African American Sacred Music in particular, which will hold special significance for us in the jazz and contemporary popular music area."

All are welcome! Admission charge at the door.
