The Harriet Tubman Freedom Music Festival concert takes place annually in July and is part of the New York Dance Festival!  The concert happens in Harriet Tubman’s home town of Auburn, NY with global support and goodwill.  The concert is a national gift where “A Soundtrack for Harriet Tubman” is shared while it’s tour allows creator Sean McLeod to collaborate with presenters and musicians in each city celebrating “What It Means to Be Free!”  The entire undertaking is a wondrous and inclusive community building event where local celebrities of giving can also be acknowledged.

The annual concert headlines “A Soundtrack for Harriet Tubman” a revived score from a 1993 Harriet Tubman Musical composed by Sean McLeod and today is played by acclaimed musicians to give Harriet’s life a soundtrack, and presents local and regional artists who’s music inspires the voice of freedom.  The Harriet Tubman Freedom Music Festival is an open air (free to the public) concert of blues, jazz, and gospel music played in celebration of Harriet Tubman’s legacy and “What it means to be free!”. 

The Harriet Tubman Freedom Music Festival shares a powerful message of Freedom. This event is poised to be the next Global Citizens Festival!  The Global Citizens Festival is a movement to end extreme poverty, and the Harriet Tubman Freedom Music Festival is a global “Celebration of What It Means to Be Free”!
