Reviews

A valuable guide to the repertoire. --Times Union


A valuable guide to the repertoire. --Times Union While some composers are familiar (including Herbie Hancock and Bobby McFerrin), the overwhelming impression is how many unsung Black composers have contributed so much pleasure to music lovers. It's abundantly clear their work has enriched and expanded the world's musical palette. . . . A book that should be in every music lover's library. --Library Journal, Starred Review
