    This is what a conductor looks like. This is what Black excellence looks like. This is what Bent But Not Broken looks like. Bent But Not Broken is more than a conference; it is a movement. It is our long-term commitment to doing the work that must be done. The work is hard, the work is ongoing, and Bent But Not Broken is dedicated to continuing that work. There are so many ways to get involved in Bent But Not Broken. You can apply to take part in the conducting masterclass, nominate an excellent Black conductor or educator for the Nia Award, sign your students up for the honor choir, and register to attend the conference! We want YOU to join the movement! Visit elevatevocalarts.org to explore all that Bent But Not Broken has to offer!

    "Let me tell you one thing! A palm tree will bend but never break. It will always pop right back up!" Arreon took a moment during our last BBNB Live Chat to explain the origin of the name "Bent But Not Broken." Take a listen and learn about this conference's deep roots in Black culture! You can still register for the conference and take advantage of the many opportunities BBNB has to offer! There is still space in the conducting masterclass with Dr. A. Jan Taylor and in the Honor Choirs! Learn more and register at www.elevatevocalarts.org!

    Here’s how we’re changing the narrative and diversifying the classical crossover choir genre—7 key actions we've embraced: 1. 📘Educate Ourselves and our community on systemic racism. 2. 📚Amplify Voices by showcasing works from composers and artists of color. 3. 🎧Listen to Stories that reflect the experiences of the Global Majority. 4. 🌍Intentionally diversifying our choir and collaborators. 5. ✊Foster Inclusion with policies that welcome all voices. 6. 🎉Celebrate Diverse Cultures through our music and performances. 7. 🤝Recruit Diverse Talent to enrich our soundscape and audience reach. #ChoralChange #DiverseVoices #ClassicalCrossover #InclusiveChoir
