Musical Landscapes in Color
Now available in paperback, William C. Banfield’s acclaimed collection of interviews delves into the lives and work of forty-one Black composers. Each of the profiled artists offers a candid self-portrait that explores areas from training and compositional techniques to working in a exclusive canon that has existed for a very long time. At the same time, Banfield draws on sociology, Western concepts of art and taste, and vernacular musical forms like blues and jazz to provide a frame for the artists’ achievements and help to illuminate the ongoing progress and struggles against industry barriers. Expanded illustrations and a new preface by the author provide invaluable added context, making this new edition an essential companion for anyone interested in Black composers or contemporary classical music.

Banfield, Ysaye Maria Barnwell, Billy Childs, Noel DaCosta, Anthony Davis, George Duke, Leslie Dunner, Donal Fox, Adolphus Hailstork, Jester Hairston, Herbie Hancock, Jonathan Holland, Anthony Kelley, Wendell Logan, Bobby McFerrin, Dorothy Rudd Moore, Jeffrey Mumford, Gary Powell Nash, Stephen Newby, Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson, Michael Powell, Patrice Rushen, George Russell, Kevin Scott, Evelyn Simpson-Curenton, Hale Smith, Billy Taylor, Frederick C.

CSO REACHES OUT
As a part of the Chicago community, I am insulted by the John von Rhein article \"Deconstructing the Chicago Symphony Orchestra Part 2: The orchestra\" (Arts & Entertainment, Nov. 7). This article reflects an elitist and classist attitude that the Chicago Symphony Orchestra has worked so hard to overcome. Over the years the Chicago Symphony Orchestra has worked diligently to create a sense of community through wonderful community-based, interactive programs, which are changing the perception that the Chicago Symphony Orchestra exists only for upper-middle-class whites.
