Many of these works, representing all styles from simple four-part settings to avant-garde pieces, have not been performed before because of the difficulty in locating them. White''s bibliography provides a useful tool for busy conductors wishing to perform music by African-American composers, and serves as an incentive to choral conductors to program little-known composers as well as unknown works by established musicians.   Arrangement is by composer. Entries list number of pages; voicing and solo requirements; vocal ranges; degree of difficulty; a cappella or type of accompaniment; publishers; and catalog number. Also included are a title index; a listing of selected collections of Negro spirituals; biographical sketches of African-American composers and arrangers; and three appendixes: selected source readi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo other resource competes with this volume, which merits acquisition by all libraries with music collections and should be on the bookshelves of all choral conductors. * CHOICE *\u003cbr\u003e...the outstanding feature of this book is the illuminating introduction that ranges across the history of its subject... -- Eric Winter","brand":"Rlpg\/Galleys","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51038287921495,"sku":"9780810830370","price":71.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780810830370.jpg?v=1750939786","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/choral-music-by-africanamerican-composers-9780810830370","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
