JUNETEENTH SYMPHONY
(Identity 34:1)
Dedicated to Scott Joplin and Samuel Coleridge-Taylor
This work for chorus and orchestra is an excerpt from Symphony No. 4 - Juneteenth.
It was written to commemorate the early 19th-century Juneteenth celebrations and is musically designed to reflect the format of those celebrations. To this extent, the work may be deemed programmatic. The composition utilizes two prominent forms of African American music in the last half of the 19th century: ragtime and spirituals.
