"The Ballad of the Brown King" is a choral work composed by Margaret Bonds, an African-American composer. The piece was first performed in 1954 and portrays the story of the Three Wise Men from the perspective of Balthazar, the "brown king." It combines elements of classical music, spirituals, and African-American folk songs to create a powerful and moving composition. Bonds' work explores themes of racial identity, social justice, and the power of faith, making it a significant contribution to the repertoire of African-American choral music.
