As an educational practice against racism and colonialism, Danielle Almeida designs didactic concerts and makes the influence of black singers in Latin-American music visible. In this hour on dublab we focus on her work in general, and her concert repertoire which took place at King Georg on the September 19th, 2022 in particular. This concert was part of concluding her residency at Akademie der Künste der Welt (Academy of the Arts of the World, ADKDW) in Cologne.
