William Grant
Still’s catalog of
works comprises over 200
pieces, including five
symphonies, nine operas,
four ballets and numerous
works for chamber
ensembles. He initially
found employment as an
oboist in pit orchestras
in New York City, later
as an arranger of popular
music for various
ensembles, including
those by William C.
Handy, James P. Johnson
and Paul Whiteman. His
career as a composer was
launched with a
performance in 1931 of
his Symphony No. 1
“Afro-Americanâ€
by the Rochester
Philharmonic, conducted
by Howard Hanson, who
would remain a life-long
champion of
Still’s orchestral
works. By the 1950s the
symphony had been
performed in New York,
Chicago, Los Angeles and
various European
capitals.This notoriety
earned Still a Guggenheim
Fellowship in 1934, after
which he moved to Los
Angeles. He is credited
as the first
African-American to
conduct a major orchestra
(the Los Angeles
Philharmonic Orchestra),
the first to have an
opera performed by a
major company (Troubled
Island by the New York
City Opera in 1949), and
one of the first
composers to write for
radio, films and
television. So numerous
were his awards and
accolades, including
three Guggenheim
Fellowships and a variety
of honorary doctorates,
that he was designated as
the “Dean of
Afro-American
Composers.â€The
“Black beltâ€
refers to a region in the
southern United States
that was distinguished by
the color of its fertile
soil. It was an area
whose rich economy was
based on cotton and
tobacco plantations that
were controlled by rich
white people and worked
by poor black laborers.
Still’s piece From
the Black Belt from 1926
is presumably a musical
representation of these
laborers. He described
its seven parts in the

its seven parts in the

Li’l Scamp If one
were to base his judgment
on the volume of sound,
he would think this
little fellow, who
delights in playing
childish pranks, a big
scamp. But the aptness of
the title is determined
by the brevity of the
piece rather than by the
volume of sound.
Honeysuckle A musical
suggestion of the
saccharine odor of the
honeysuckle. Dance This
title is
self-explanatory. Brown
GirlA tone picture of a
lovely girl. Mah Bones Is
Creakin’An old
man, afflicted with
rheumatism, complains
loudly. BlueThe lament of
a weary soul. Clap
Yo’
Han’sThe
participants in a game
for children form a
circle and clap their
hands at intervals.
