Experience the sound of BLACK Reimagined —a one-night-only musical event showcasing the brilliance of three extraordinary artists pushing the boundaries of classical, soul, and operatic traditions.

Blake Hernton, known as Concert Black, brings virtuosity and vision to the stage as a violinist, composer, and educator. Fusing classical rigor with contemporary rhythm, Hernton leads a new movement of accessible music education and transformative string performance, inspiring the next generation through sound.

Lil Smokemon, a soul-stirring guitarist and lyrical storyteller, delivers raw, original music layered with emotion and truth. In his first-ever collaboration with a live string quartet, Montu invites listeners into a genre-defying space where progressive soul meets orchestral depth.

Completing this powerful trio is tenor Christian Hamilton, whose operatic roots and R&B flair blend into a dynamic vocal presence. With a voice shaped by both gospel halls and grand concert stages, Hamilton brings vulnerability, ambition, and spiritual depth to every note—echoing the lineage of legends while forging a future of his own.

Together, these artists create a sonic experience that honors the past, transcends genre, and redefines what it means to be excellent, Black, and boundless in music.
