Charles Vincent Burwell BIO
Charles Vincent Burwell (He Series) has long felt that diversity and creative identity were instrumental in the fashioning of a well-rounded artist. A San Francisco, CA native having been raised in Hampton Roads, Virginia, Vincent began his musical training with the piano at age seven.

A Congressional Scholar in Leadership, Vincent received a B.S. in Choral/Vocal Music Education from Florida A & M University. It was in college that he would nurture his studies in theater, dance, voice, and ethnomusicology. There he performed as a soloist with the FAMU Concert Choir, a dancer with Orchesis Contemporary Dance Theater as a well as an accompanist for the Florida Sate University Department of Dance.
