Moham 1997 ABSTRACT Although African-American women have been composing art songs since the advent of the genre in the United States in the early twentieth century, little is known about their many important contributions to the art song form. These women greatly enhanced the genre by combining African-American musical idioms and western European musical ideas. While many of these women are known for their arrangements of Negro spirituals, most of their art song compositions have been neglected. There are two primary reasons for this neglect. In the early twentieth century women were considered of inferior intelligence and too emotional for the seriousness of composing, rendering it virtually impossible for them to have their music published. This task was doubly difficult for African-American women who dealt with both sexual and racial bias. Due to these prejudices, African-American women were largely unable to have their songs published or performed, thus creating a vacuum of unpublished solo vocal compositions. This document examines the lives and selected art songs of African-American women composers Florence Price (1888-1953), Margaret Bonds (1913-1972), Undine Smith Moore (1904-1989) and Dorothy Rudd Moore (b. 1940). Contrasting the lives and art song compositions of these four women shows a developing “migration” of styles that spans the twentieth century. By exploring the impact of social and educational race and gender on their compositional styles and selection of text, it is hoped that this document will make a valuable contribution to the currently minimal scholarship available on the art songs of these composers. The following steps were taken to present a comprehensive portrait of these composers in relation to their songs; 1) examination of original manuscripts, journal articles and other documents housed at institutions around the country; 2) a personal interview witii Dorothy Rudd Moore; 3) interviews with former students and friends of the composers. These four represent only a small fraction of Afncan-American women composers active in the twentieth century. It is crucial that research continue if scholars and musicians are to begin to correct the decades of neglect of these composers and their songs. Ill Dedicated to the memories of my grandmother, Sarah Anderson (1911-1983) and my mentor, Carol Brice (1918-1985) IV ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to give special thanks to my mother, Shirley Moham, my aunt, Alice Pouncil, my fiancé. Dr. Alfonse Anderson and all of my family and fnends for their unconditional love and support. I wish to thank my dissertation committee. Dr. Karen Peeler, Dr. Ted McDaniel and Dr. Robin Rice for their comments and encouragement; I would also like to express my appreciation to the Graduate School of The Ohio State University for the Graduate Student Alumni Research Award which enabled me to complete a large portion of my research. I am eternally gratefully to Dorothy Rudd Moore for taking time from her very hectic schedule to give me insight into her life as a composer, to my dear friend Dennis Turner whose wonderful gift of a computer helped immensely with this project. I thank Dr. Robert Taylor who spent many hours helping me locate and obtain obscure recordings; my friend Tammy Kemodle for exchanging ideas and books with me; the membership of Black Music Students Association for being there for me; Lea Pearson and Dr. Anthony McDonald and their family for all of ftieir help and support; and Michael Lester who has been a special friend and colleague since my first day at Ohio State.

    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: SELECTED WORKS OF COMPOSERS ASSOCIATED WITH HOWARD UNIVERSITY Guericke Christopher Royal, Doctor of Musical Arts, 2018 Dissertation directed by: Professor Chris Gekker School of Music Throughout its over 100 year history, Howard University has produced and attracted many talented composers of many musical genres. Limiting this project to any one genre or focus would have lessened the overall impact of the music they created and the inspiration that has been a lauded part of the institution. The project will demonstrate the various harmonic, melodic, rhythmic and emotional contributions of the selected composers through interpretation of their music on the trumpet. Composers have been connected to the university in three general ways: as students, alumni and faculty; as commissioned artists; and through the performance of their works by notable performers associated with Howard. The pieces selected for this project exemplify a wide range of musical expressions and compositional techniques, and hopefully have been presented in a way that allows the emotional impact of each piece to resonate in a unique fashion. The selected works tended to fall into the categories of A. Trumpet and Brass Works B. Spirituals/ Meditational/ Religious Works C. Popular and Jazz Pieces D. Organ or other Instrumental Works E. Works of Historical Reference or Significance In some cases, certain pieces may be categorized across multiple categories (e.g. an organ piece based on religious material). As this was also a recording project, great care was taken during the recording process to capture as much emotional content as possible through stereo microphone techniques and the use of high quality equipment.

  • Liner Notes Watch and Pray: Spirituals and Art Songs by African American Women Composers, Koch International, 3-7247-2H1, 2000
    Liner Notes Watch and Pray: Spirituals and Art Songs by African American Women Composers, Koch International, 3-7247-2H1, 2000 American Music, by definition, is the result of a particular fusion of many musical cultures. This recording presents an important strand in this complicated tapestry—the blending of African American spiritual songs with the art music of Europe. The origin of the spiritual is still a matter of debate. However, it is generally agreed that it evolved out of the collective folk experiences of the slave. The compositional process relied on the oral tradition, passing these songs from one person to another, generation to generation. We will perhaps never know exactly what they sounded like, nor are we ever likely to precisely trace their evolution. Thus it is probable that the body of music we now associate with the spiritual bears only partial resemblance to the folk original. Spiritual arrangements, as a second evolutionary stage, came into being as early as the middle of the nineteenth century and played an important role in spreading the music and texts far beyond their original folk context. The songs presented here provide a glimpse into a third important development—the reclamation and synthesis of the folksong by African American art music composers. As the African American experience changed, so did its music. By the first half of this century, a small number of African Americans had gained access to conservatories and universities here and abroad. This resulted in the appearance of dramatic new voices on the American musical scene. These African American pioneer composers elected not to abandon their cultural heritage but to transform it with their new musical skills and perspective.

When I Get Home Edward Hammon Boatner was born on November 13, 1898 in New Orleans, Louisiana to the family of an itinerant minister. Boatner’s father, Dr. Daniel Webster Boatner traveled frequently from church to church, and thus provided his son an introduction to rural church singing. Edward Boatner received his musical education at Western University in Kansas, the Boston Conservatory, New England Conservatory, the Longy School of Music, and the Chicago College of Music. In his lifetime, Boatner arranged and published more than 200 spirituals, with written works including Story of the Spiritual: Thirty Spirituals and Their Origins, and the spiritual musicals, The Man of Nazareth and The Origin of the Spirituals. His arrangements have been recorded by Roland Hayes, Marian Anderson, Paul Robeson, Leontyne Price and Nelson Eddy. Boatner achieved acclaim as a singer and also served as music director of the National Baptist Convention (1925-1933), as music director at Samuel Huston College in Austin and as Dean of Music at Wiley College. He also operated a studio in New York City where he trained choral groups, gave private voice and piano instruction, and trained actors. An avid writer, Boatner published books on music theory and composition. Writings include The Damaging Results of Racism, Black Humor, Great Achievements in Black and White and the novel One Drop of Blood (New York Public Library, Digital Library Collections). Edward Boatner died in New York in 1981, leaving a legacy of developing the concert spiritual genre in which elements of folk song and art song are blended.

  • African American Song Recital Project BU CFA SOM Departments of Voice and Collaborative Piano April 2021
    African American Song Recital Project BU CFA SOM Departments of Voice and Collaborative Piano April 2021 Program Notes – Shiela Kibbe Art songs by African American composers and composers of the African diaspora are rich and diverse in poetic heritage, harmonic language, and compositional style. This project has introduced pianists and singers to a catalogue of repertoire that is immensely rewarding to performers as well as listeners. Although African American composers have set texts by many authors and poets, they have been especially drawn to the words of African American writers. Three of the most influential African American poets were Paul Dunbar, James Weldon Johnson, and Langston Hughes. Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872-1906) was the first African American poet to gain national recognition. Born to parents who were freed slaves in Kentucky, Dunbar’s writing often referred to their stories of plantation life. He published poems in Standard English as well as in dialect; his poetry using dialect attracted the most attention. The H. Leslie Adams song Sence You Went Away is a beautiful example of the softened diction used in Dunbar’s dialect poetry. James Weldon Johnson (1871-1938) penned the words to Lift Every Voice and Sing in 1900. Set to music by his brother Rosamund, this glorious song became commonly known as the Negro National Anthem, and is sung today in churches, at sporting events, and as part of the Black Lives Matter movement. Johnson was the First African American to pass the bar exam in Florida, and spent his professional life as an educator, a lawyer, the US Consul to Venezuela, and an officer in the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP).
