Of William's determination and of his many achievements,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: William Grant Still: African-American Composer (Masters of Music) (Library Binding)
William Grant Still grew up the grandson of slaves in the segregated South: he knew he wanted to be a classical musician, but his mother wanted him to become a doctor and doubted his ability to achieve in the white-dominated classical music world. This biograhy for young readers tells of William's determination and of his many achievements, with a little over 100 pages including black and white photos throguhout.

The Best Book About Still for Young Readers,
By AfroAmericanHeritage (Wisconsin) - See all my reviews
This review is from: William Grant Still: African-American Composer (Masters of Music) (Library Binding)
This book is clear, concise and engaging. It doesn't skirt issues of race - it explores the obstacles Still faced in both the white and black communities. Highly recommended.
