Composers of Color - Harry T. Burleigh (1866-1949) was one of the first prominent African-American composers in American history. Burleigh studied at New York's National Conservatory of Music; one of his principal teachers and mentors was this eminent Czech composer, whose best-known symphony is noted for its use of American folksongs and spirituals. Who was he?
The correct answer is 'Antonin Dvorak'
In his position at the National Conservatory, Dvorak was known to take a particular interest in students of African and Native American ancestry. He was fascinated with the native folk music of North America, which was the inspiration for his celebrated Symphony # 9 in E minor ("From the New World"). Burleigh, favorite pupil of Dvorak's, has been credited with having assisted Dvorak by sharing his intimate knowledge of the spiritual repertoire, much of which he had learned from his grandfather, a former slave. Burleigh's most enduring works are his settings of spirituals for voice and piano and for chorus, as well as the song cycle "Passionelle" (a setting of poems by J. Rosamund Johnson). Burleigh's songs were performed during his lifetime by such great artists as Roland Hayes, John McCormack, and Marian Anderson.
