SONGS OF SOLOMON: An Inspirational Ensemble (SOS), founded in 2001 by veteran conductor, Pastor Chantel Renee Wright, remains true to its mission to serve the world community through its music. Professor Wright (NYU) is a firm believer that arts education stimulates children spiritually and intellectually and builds the family through its commitment to a child’s development. The organization has spread its wings with the implementation of the SONGS OF SOLOMON ACADEMY OF THE ARTS which now serves several schools in the New York City Department of Education and is poised to be the global model for urban education. SOS’s membership originates from the Tri-State area bridging all ethnicities. They have focused diligently on being a safe haven for all young people to flourish. For the past four years 100% of our membership has entered college and 50% are now pursing advanced degrees in the arts.
Now as we celebrate our 15th anniversary, The Ensemble has performed with Earth Wind and Fire, Carol King, Elton John, Aretha Franklin, listed among a Who’s Who in the performing arts industry. Most recently Songs of Solomon has participated in the Creative Learning Project, Musical Connections, and Count Me In at Carnegie Hall. Songs of Solomon has recorded Variations of the War Cry, toured major cities in the United States, Africa, and abroad, won numerous competitions in the metropolitan area, and continues to serve in churches, corporations and major performing venues.
