Documented collaborators

The Evolution of African American Music is a scholarly, education-forward project rather than a traditional performing act. Led by Portia K. Maultsby, Professor Emerita of Ethnomusicology at Indiana University and founder of the Archives of African American Music and Culture (AAAMC), this timeline offers an in-depth look at the evolution of more than 50 African American music styles from 1600 to the present. Carnegie Hall hosts this interactive educational resource, highlighting how genres connect and influence one another through history. While the project itself centers on research, museums, lectures, and exhibitions—often led by Maultsby or affiliated institutions like IU AAAMC and Carnegie Hall—there are opportunities to engage with related public programs in venues nationwide. If you’re curious about the cultural roots, scholarly context, and ongoing impact of African American music, this page connects you with related events, discussions, and forthcoming appearances near you.
