Sorry, this comment doesn't strictly relate to this podcast, but I wasn't sure how to get this message to you.
As I was surfing recently, trying to research black composers, I came across a video from a group called Buskaid. This is a string ensemble based in Soweto, South Africa. After listening to several of their videos, I was absolutely gobsmacked by their performances. While listening to them, I recalled Glenn's oft repeated observation that just because he is black, that doesn't mean he cannot appreciate Shakespeare and Beethoven and Raphael.
Please if you haven't already heard (and heard of) this group, listen to this video. They play with such professionalism and just plain joy, that it's inspiring. https://youtu.be/VRBUA5rgaLs
