When it comes to music and the Black experience in America, HBCUs, or historically black colleges and universities, have a long tradition of cultural expression. For more than 150 years, HBCUs have produced classically-trained musicians, from composers like William Grant Still, to divas like Leontyne Price and Jessye Norman. But that tradition also includes marching bands, gospel choirs, orchestras, and, of course, glee clubs.
