Episode Synopsis

William Grant Still was a man of firsts. He was the first African American to to conduct a major symphony orchestra in the United States. In 1931, his first symphony became the first complete symphony ever performed by a major orchestra, and until 1950, that symphony was the most performed American symphony by ANY composer. Still's music reflects a remarkable breadth of styles, structures, and orchestral colors, and it's a great pleasure to take you through some of his most emblematic works today.
