A diverse repertoire of art songs for piano and voice The art song--a delicate and inspiring blend of mu-sic and poetry--has been performed by singers and pianists and appreciated by audiences around the world for more than two hundred years. While collec-tions of art songs abound, this welcome volume and its accompanying compact discs make readily avail-able the contributions of contemporary African American composers to the popular genre. Including thirty-nine pieces for voice and piano created since 1968 by eighteen artists, "A" "New Anthology of Art Songs by African American Composers "navigates a varied musical terrain from classical European tradi-tions to jazz and spirituals. With nearly half of the featured songs composed by women and with others by lesser-known and emerging composers, this im-portant collection offers a diverse, representative sampling of African American art songs and works to secure the places of these songs and artists in the canon of contemporary American music. Selected by Jeanine Wagner and Margaret R. Simmons, prolific and celebrated performers who have presented recitals throughout the world featur-ing the art songs of African American composers, this dazzling new repertoire of twentieth-century music is cogently framed by a thorough introduction and sub-stantial biographies of each composer. The compact discs feature piano tracks of all thirty-nine composi-tions. The featured composers are H. Leslie Adams, Mable Bailey, Charles S. Brown, Wallace McClain Cheatham, Adolphus Hailstork, Jacqueline B. Hairston, William H. Henderson, Jeraldine Saunders Herbison, Betty Jackson King, William FosterMcDaniel, Undine Smith Moore, Byron Motley, Bar-bara Sherrill, Robert Owens, Nadine Shanti, Frederick Tillis, Dolores White, and Julius P. Williams.
