The Music of a Heart: Nathaniel Dett
Episode 7
Tuesday, 16 March, 2021

Robert Nathaniel Dett (1882-1943) brought an African - American folk tunes into the classical music. It wasn't just an unusual, innovative and refreshing creative choice: it was his mission, and a true calling of his heart to do so. Today we are left with several beautiful piano works (and many choral works) celebrating the African-American musical heritage, but also deeply resonating in their listeners regardless of geographic or cultural background. And describing his music, we just described who Nathaniel Dett was - a poet, idealist, romantic - who was building bridges and seeking to connect with all humans, in times that were challenging this idea on every step of the way. Music: R.Nathaniel Dett "Prelude - Night" from the suite "In the Bottoms" Piano, talk: Katarina Andjelkovic www.katarinaandjelkovic.com For the updates on the next episodes follow: www.facebook.com/pianorediscovered To support Piano ReDiscovered (thank you!) visit: www.buymeacoffee.com/rediscoverPiano NextUs Festival: nextus.beyourownmanager.com
