Description

William Grant Still’s PAGES FROM NEGRO HISTORY is set in three movements: Africa, Slavery, and Emancipation, and contains text by pianist and writer Verna Arvey, Still’s wife. Still employs his trademark style of orchestrating in this work, which ranks among the most harmonically and melodically accessible in his oeuvre.
