Yesterday AfriClassical posted “Annotated Photo of Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, Afro-British Composer, on Flickr”. Mike S. Wright comments: “I heartily disagree with the comment in that blog: 'And yet, the works of this talented composer are now out of fashion; little of his music is available in printed form.' That may have been true some years ago but there is a clear renaissance as witnessed by performances at last year's Henry Wood Promenade Concerts (and more to come this year) Several first rate recordings have appeared. He is not out of fashion!!!”
