Not Just Another Black Composer Compilation: Kellen Gray Revives Neglected American Masterpieces
LINN CKD 731 For the humble listener, a musician’s technical and interpretive performance skills are one of the most compelling reasons to buy a concert ticket or a recording of said musician.

Yesterday, Dakneisha and I got to listen in on UConn Music’s Symphonic Wind Ensemble rehearsal of our piece KHRONOS.⏳
It was fun getting to hear another ensemble pick up this challenging piece and bring it to life. Thank you to Director Janet Song Kim for choosing to perform our music tonight!
Shout outs to the students and guest soloist for putting in the time, effort and heart into what I know will be a wonderful concert this evening! A personal thank you to the flutist; I love your take on the solo in “Chaos.” 💙
You can watch it via the livestream link at 7CST.

Wha!? Black Composers!?
That there were black composers at all is entirely a surprise, never mind black composers that were contemporaries of Ludwig von Beethoven.
This is what happens when your society is, at it's core, racist.

Treemonisha Wasn’t the Only One, James P. Johnson’s Lost Operas.
Naxos 8.669041 Regular readers of this blog are doubtless aware of my “underdog” interests. Whether suppressed by fascist regime, (as in London Records “Entartete Musik” series and Chandos “ARC”ensemble recordings), or just somehow eclipsed by more “spectacular” (by which I mean, “producing a spectacle” like Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring) but, as exemplified by Cedille Records’ “Avant L’ Orage”,…
