Celebrate 250 Years of The United States
Celebrate 250 Years of the United States is a landmark concert presented by Orlando Sings, bringing together more than 300 singers from across Central Florida for a powerful musical tribute to our nation’s founding ideals. Featuring the Symphonic Chorus, Harmonia, Apollo, Senior Singers and guest high school choirs, this multi-generational event offers a dynamic celebration of American music.
At the heart of the program is Brandon Boyd’s “Redeem the Dream,” a stirring work rooted in the Declaration of Independence and inspired by Langston Hughes’ poem “Let America Be America Again.” This piece invites audiences to reflect on the founding promise that all people are created equal and to consider how each generation carries forward the American dream.
The concert concludes with beloved patriotic music and tributes honoring veterans of every generation. Together, these performances offer audiences a chance to celebrate our shared history, reflect on the journey of the past 250 years and look forward with renewed hope and civic spirit.
