Have A Gum Drop Celebrates Mississippi Symphony's William Grant Still Tour

[Afro-American Symphony; William Grant Still; Royal Philharmonic Orchestra; Karl Krueger, conductor; Bridge 9086 (1999)]

Have A Gum Drop closed a post on Wimbo's music studies yesterday with a comment on the local performance of the Mississippi Symphony Orchestra's William Grant Still Tour:

Anyway, that's what's up at the moment. And tomorrow is the final performance, for us anyway, of the William Grant Still music with the Mississippi Symphony in Hattiesburg. WOOT! (for the symphony!)

We posted a comment today on Have A Gum Drop and invited Wimbo to visit the William Grant Still page of AfriClassical.com Today's concert by the Mississippi Symphony Orchestra was at 3 PM at Bennett Auditorium on the campus of the University of Southern Mississippi, in Hattiesburg. It was the fourth in a series of five performances of the music of William Grant Still at locations around Mississippi.

The William Grant Still Tour will conclude at 7:30 PM Thursday, Nov. 15, 2007 at Bologna Performing Arts Center in Cleveland, Mississippi.
