Bryon Black II, Conductor

For Year 35, I thought I’d release one of my favorite USC choral performances! Enjoy the newly released single, “Lord, Send Your Spirit” but the brilliant Dr. Raymond Wise. Available on Spotify, Apple, Amazon, YouTube and Pandora now! linktr.ee/bkblack28

New music this weekend? Yes please!! 😎💿🎶🙌🏾

@raycarmenmusic Thanks so much, Ray!!

It’s official! Excited to join the School of Music faculty at DePauw University.

Happy Juneteenth! ✊🏾🖤 In lieu of promoting excellent black music, here’s one of my new favorites: “Lord, Send Your Spirit” by Dr. Raymond Wise, a prolific composer & musician. Full video: youtu.be/ytVNHL1KU_A?si… See more of Dr. Wise’s work at raiseonline.com. #gospel

Congrats to the Sandlapper Singers, Midlands Men’s Chorus, A.C. Flora Concert Choir, and She Sings for a fantastic “Voices in Harmony” concert! It was an honor to have two of my dearest compositions so beautifully performed by such dedicated singers and conductors. Bravo!!! 👏🏾👏🏾

One of the most unique settings of The Lord’s Prayer you’ll ever hear, by Isaac Cates! youtu.be/XZkoYNcgAMU?si…

Dr. Diane L. White-Clayton (aka "Dr. Dee") has written several gospel anthems that integrated her Baroque, Classical and Romantic choral influences. Any choir would enjoy performing this as much as we did! Watch the performance from my recital YouTube: youtu.be/sCIO4qoRUPY
