Authoritative work by the pioneering African-American composer containing a substantial collection of his work along with a detailed discography and bibliography. With introductions by Howard Hanson and Frederick Hall and contributions by Paul Harold Slattery Verna Arvey and Louis and Annette Kaufman. "Still writes in every medium of musical expression with a power that is undergirded by a spirit of great humility and honest dedication. It is such a spirit that causes him to rise above the technical and creative skills of musical composition over which he has complete mastery and give forth utterances that "lift a race from wood and stone to Christ." What he has done and is doing for American Negro Music is inestimable" p.xi. Morrow & Cooney 123b. Black Sparrow Press unknown
