Lincoln Center Presents- REVIVAL: The Gospel According to Donald Lawrence (Featuring Special Guest: LEDISI And Joseph Joubert)

April 4 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm
CHOOSE-WHAT-YOU-PAY

GRAMMY Award-winning producer, composer, and choir master Donald Lawrence has been one of the most prominent and celebrated voices in contemporary gospel music for over 30 years. Alongside his choir, the Tri-City Singers, Lawrence’s talent has been instrumental in the work of The Clark Sisters, Mary J. Blige, Kirk Franklin, and Hezekiah Walker, among many others. For this one-night-only REVIVAL at David Geffen Hall, Lawrence is joined by special guest LEDISI, the powerhouse GRAMMY Award winner whose voice transcends genre—blending soul, R&B, gospel, and jazz with emotional depth and technical mastery. Together they celebrate great gospel composers in an expansive meditation on the traditions and artistry of gospel music: its roots, its resilience, and its power to move the human spirit. In times of upheaval and trouble, what does gospel have to offer the modern listener? Lawrence’s answer is both deeply personal and universally resonant, reminding us of the art form’s enduring capacity to inspire and uplift. Through song, reflection, and reinvention, Lawrence—alongside his ensemble of singers and band—invites us to witness how gospel music gives wings to collective struggle, joy, and heritage. Join us for an evening that traces gospel’s historical and musical lineage while opening space for audiences to experience the high artform that it is.
