"Bassoonist Lecolion Washington...may seem to have picked a quintessentially small slice of the musical universe with this disc of bassoon music by African-American composers, but the disc turns out to be a sterling demonstration of the variety of this least understood branch of the great tree of black music. ...an unexpected pleasure." (AllMusic)
"This disc works well on at least three levels: as a display of the bassoon, as interesting music, and--not to be sneered at--as neat background music for whatever else you may be doing." (Fanfare)

A beautifully performed concert program of music by African-American composers.
Lecolion Washington, Jr., a faculty member at the University of Memphis, has put together an intriguing mix of works for bassoon by African-American composers. Ranging from William Grant Still, who was born in 1895 to Daniel Bernard Roumain, born in 1970, the collection offers a concise history of African-Americans composers who have concentrated on classical music. Altogether a beautifully performed concert program of music for bassoon.Contents:
