Uncover the indelible influence of African drumbeats, moving spirituals and ragtime on orchestral music. In our exploration of African and American history we investigate the fusion of musical genres in music by Eubie Blake, Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue, Duke Ellington's Rockin in Rhythm, and Steve Reich's Clapping Music.
