On September 21, all churches, synagogues, chapels, sanctuaries, houses of prayer and places of peace are invited to include a special musical piece in their liturgies. Doctor Everett McCorvey, director of the UK's opera theater program and founder and music director of the African spiritual ensemble, says this project has been near and dear to his heart and has been decades in the making. He talks all about it with host, Tom Musgrave.
