In the summer of 2007, the Concert Choir embarked on a historic, 10-day, six-city Freedom Tour of the southern U. S., honoring the founding of the organization at the very height of the Civil Rights Movement.  The documentary, Songs on the Road to Freedom, follows this unforgettable tour; featuring historic people and places, live performances and reflections by Choir members and the people they touched.

This documentary and the Freedom Tour made possible by the McCormick Tribune Foundation.
