He has prepared choirs for Messiah performances at the Kennedy Center’s annual sing-along and revived the beloved Messiah tradition at Trinity Episcopal–Piney Branch and First Presbyterian Church of Arlington, Virginia. As an advocate for diversity in the arts, Graham is dedicated to uplifting African American and LGBTQ+ musicians.
