Dear William given your interest in Africans in classical music, I thought you might be interested in hearing something from Scotland.

Dear Bill thank you so much for this listing - I think you are doing a fantastic job showing that people of African descent have been part of the history of western 
classical music for hundreds of years. Gwen is represented by her agent, Steven Swales...With best wishes, Matthew Rooke
