Soul Harmony: The Story of Deborah Chessler, Sonny Til and the Orioles
June 20, 2018 - July 1, 2018
In 1953 when a young Jewish singer/songwriter, Deborah Chessler, partnered with a dynamic black vocal group, The Orioles, their song “Crying in the Chapel” quickly became a #1 hit. Next, “It’s Too Soon to Know” was released and gave birth to Rhythm and Blues. Soul Harmony chronicles The Orioles’ rise and reveals the role they played in challenging segregation and Jim Crow, bringing people together across America through their music. Uptown!
