- This event has passed.
Roots Re-Visioned is a project of the Great Northern Union Chorus (GNU), an iconic Twin Cities barbershop chorus that, two years ago, set out on a path of radical inclusion.
The goal of Roots Re-Visioned is to look at barbershop singing and barbershop culture through the eyes of the descendants of the communities from which it was appropriated. We can alter our own course and the course of our music by celebrating and honoring Black voices and influences, and by exploring how this deeper understanding may alter our course.
