The Galveston Musical Club will present the African Heritage Composer’s Concert, “Even More in 2004,” at 3 p.m. on Sunday, February 8 at Reedy Chapel A.M.E. Church, 2013 Broadway in Galveston. This year's concert is dedicated to the memory of the club's co-founder, Mrs. Bernice Polk Hightower. "In addition to the talent we have access to, here at home, we will have Ms. Givonna Joseph, who is the education director for the Louisiana Symphony Orchestra, based in New Orleans," notes Izola Collins. "Ms. Joseph is an experienced and accomplished mezzo-soprano, herself, and will present music by little known persons of color, who wrote very significantly during the 19th century. Along with compositions by living composers, we will have a program worthy of a large admission fee, but there is none." Collins said that a free will offering will be accepted and appreciated for the expenses involved.
