AFRICA: SOLO PIECES FOR PIANO

BEGIN REPORT
Report from Worm-creature-3 aka WORM003...

Excerpts from field notes on the African-American
Composer, William Grant Still....

The album may be identified by the mysterious markings
on it:

KOCH International Classics 3-7084-2 H1

This CD (audio) contains some 20 lyrically, soothing
works for solo piano by Still.

Although, he often said that he felt uncomfortable
composing for solo piano (rather than full orchestra),
the beauty of this disk belies that statement.

Enjoy the music of Earth!
