Wednesday, April 10, the Legendary and GRAMMY Lifetime Achievement Award Recipient Twinkie Clark spends an evening at Harvard Divinity School, for one night only. It’s “An Evening with Twinkie Clark; A Conversation and Recital.”
The Legendary gospel artist Twinkie Clark will talk about her musical journey and perform music from her vast catalog of over 350 songs. Scholars Charrise Barron, Assistant Professor of Music at Harvard University, and Damien Sneed, Associate Professor in the Department of Music at Howard University, will facilitate the conversation with Twinkie Clark which will illuminate the motivations and milestones of her music career and explore key elements of her signature sound. The evening will culminate in a recital in which Twinkie Clark, a Hammond Organ Hall of Fame member, will perform on the Hammond B-3 organ.
I am excited to have such a Legend share her gift with not only the Harvard community, but specifically, the Harvard Divinity School because it has special meaning for me. HDS is Lead by our new Dean Marla Frederick, John Lord O’Brian Professor of Divinity, and the 18th Dean of Harvard Divinity School. She is the school’s first black woman to hold the position.
The evening will surely be a night to remember!
