I am a fan of anything Rhiannon Giddens sings. Yesterday, I ran across this video of her singing Wayfaring Stranger. It doesn’t get any better.
Enjoy, Jack

Here is a fun piece I ran across several weeks ago. I think maybe I have played this video before. The Youtube algo has a bad habit of doing that. But can you listen to too much Mozart, or too many times?

Two piano pieces for Black History month, from two 20th century, African American women composers, Florence Price, the teacher and Margaret Bonds her pupil.
Reading their Wikipedia biographies, reminds me of how hard it was for both Blacks and women to compose serious music.
The pianist is Samantha Ege, an interesting person in her own right.
Enjoy, Jack
