2026 King Celebration Concert

From the venue:

The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra (ASO), in partnership with Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta’s Historic Fourth Ward, is pleased to announce that the 2026 King Celebration concert on January 10 at 8pm will be livestreamed at GPB.org, aso.org, and ebenezeratl.org, and will be available on demand through the King National Holiday.

The Orchestra has been invited by the Honorable Reverend Raphael G. Warnock, Ph.D. and Patrice E. Turner, M.Div., Ed.D. of Ebenezer Baptist Church, to perform for an invited audience in the church’s sanctuary with the Ebenezer Band, and a combined choir of members from the Ebenezer Baptist Church Choir and the ASO Chorus. Timothy Miller and Tamika Patton will be featured vocalists.

Dr. Turner said, “Our 2025 King Celebration concert was a great success! Bringing together the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and Chorus and the Ebenezer Choir and Band was a beautiful example of what the beloved community that Dr. King so often espoused looks like in person through music. We look forward to our continued collaboration with ASO and our advancement of the dream of harmony—both through music and humanity.”

Jonathan Taylor Rush will conduct works by Uzee Brown, Jasmine Barnes, Adolphus Hailstork and William Grant Still, plus gospel songs and other repertoire reflective of the Ebenezer worship experience.
