(2-CD set) Harriet Tubman is an original secular oratorio for 15 piece jazz orchestra and vocal ensemble composed and written by Marcus Shelby, based on a book of the same name by Kate Clifford Larson. The vocalists featured are Faye Carol, Kenny Washington, Jeannine Anderson and Joseph Mace. Shelby's oratorio will tell the remarkable story of Harriet Tubman, a woman who rose out of humble beginnings, escaped slavery and dedicated her life to challenging the grave injustices in her day. Working on the Underground Railroad, Tubman personally led 70 slaves out of bondage at great risk to her own life, and helped dozens more to freedom.
