Most known for her singing and musical compositions with Sweet Honey and the Rock, Dr Barnwell has been a commissioned composer on numerous and varied dance, choral, film and video projects. "We Are" is a tribute to diversity and to the continuity of the generations. This unique, uplifting choral selection features interesting sounds - with the men's voices providing the rhythmic energy mimicking a drum set, while the altos, with great joy sing the melody.
