このコンテンツについて

William L. Dawson (University of Illinois Press, 2024) by Gwynne Kuhner Brown is a biography of the Black American composer, conductor and pedagogue. She gives equal weight to the different aspects of Dawson’s career from his early training at Tuskegee Institute (now University) to his twenty-five years as director of choirs and composer at the same school and ending with his thirty years as a free-lance conductor. Dawson was part of the same generation of Black classical musicians that produced Florence Price and William Grant Still. His most famous composition is probably the Negro Folk Symphony, but he wrote other music including choral arrangements of spirituals that are a staple of college choral programs. Recently, in part because of work by people like Gwynne Kuhner Brown, Dawson’s other compositions are beginning to be heard in concert halls once again. Learn more about your ad choices.
