Reviews for Piano Music of Africa and the African Diaspora Volume 3: Early Advanced
It contains music that is pianistically exquisite (Coleridge-Taylor's Deep River, Ludovic Lamothe's La Dangereuse), fun (Howard Swanson's The Cuckoo, R. Nathaniel Dett's Jua Dance), dramatic (Wallace McClain Cheathem's Third Prelude) and pedagogical (Gamal Abdel-Rahim's Egyptian folksong variations, which are similar to Kabalevsky's sets of children's variations). The depth and breadth of 20th-century piano music is extended in this remarkable ongoing anthology of works by composers who remain underplayed and neglected. Volumes 4 and 5 are eagerly awaited.
International Piano, September 08
Compiled and edited by the Ghanaian performer and scholar W. H. Chapman Nyaho, this anthology of thirteen pieces (each written by a different composer) is quite a treasure-chest. . . There is a feast of material here, including various traditional jazz style representations, such as blues and ragtime, but also works derived from folk-tunes and drumming rhythms that will doubtless catch the eye of many pianists with a fledgline interest in the genre.
Mark Tanner, Piano Professional, Spring 09
A new supply of richly varied repertoire
John York, Piano 2007
Technically accomplished pianists seeking to develop their hands, ears, and imagination in new ways, and to take their audiences on voyages of discovery, are recommended to obtain these volumes at the earliest opportunity.
