The University of Bristol Department of Music was delighted to host the study day Black British Music: Sacred and Secular on Saturday 25 March, 2023.
The aims of the day were to put scholarship about Black British sacred and secular music in conversation with one another, and to support academics and practitioner-scholars of all levels in building a community around these significant areas of study.
