[Margaret Bonds, profiled at AfriClassical.com]
Nicole Taylor tells AfriClassical: “The major difference between the concerts is that the first one on February 6th is related to the University of Texas and Huston Tillotson University. The second one is my own concert in the community involving some of the same performers and some performers who are professionals in the community.”
