By the mid-1920s, the Harlem Renaissance was underway. As an effort
to secure economic, social, and cultural equality with white
citizens, the Renaissance years were a proving period for black
composers and performers. Black Music in the Harlem Renaissance
explores black music in the United States and England during the
1920s and its relationship to other arts of the time. The first
collection on the subject, Black Music in the Harlem Renaissance
seeks to revise previous assumptions about music during this era.
The book features essays on various subjects including musical
theatre, Duke Ellington, black music and musicians in England,
concert singers and the interrelationships between black painters
and music. In addition, the book includes a music bibliography of
works composed during the period.
