ENGLISH

<p>The life and career of the African-American composer William Grant Still qualifies as the quintessential American &lsquo;success story.' Often referred to as the &lsquo;dean of African-American composers,' Still rose from humble beginnings to work as an arranger while studying composition with Chadwick and Varèse. Still embraced the blues, spirituals, jazz, and other ethnic American musics within classical forms. <i>Wood Notes</i> musically depicts Still's love of nature. <i>Symphony No. 2</i>, the last of a trilogy of works depicting the African-American experience, presents the vision of an integrated American society, while <i>Symphony</i> <i>No. 3 </i>describes a spiritual &lsquo;day in the life' of a devout worshipper. This disc completes the Naxos cycle of William Grant Still's Symphonies. </p>
