[Afro-American Symphony; William Grant Still; Royal Philharmonic Orchestra; Karl Kruger, conductor; Bridge 9086 (1999)]
On June 7, 2008 AfriClassical quoted Leo Botstein, Conductor of the American Symphony Orchestra, from the ensemble's feature entitle “Ask the Maestro”: “Though Bernstein and Gershwin may not be our first choices when the Bard Music Festival turns again to an American theme, rest assured that we are planning to do more American music both at the Bard Festival and during our regular season in New York. I hope you will join us for our March 22, 2009 concert of music by William Grant Still, one of the greatest but underrepresented American composers.” We have received a comment from the American Symphony Orchestra: “Thank you for passing the word along from our own Ask the Maestro!
