Black composers showcased in new choral anthology
Music from the anthology has been recorded by London Voices, conducted by Shivani Rattan and produced by Ken Burton

The Oxford University Press publishes a new choral music anthology, featuring only works by black composers highlight the contributions by composers of African descent. The editor, Marques L. A. Garrett, has chosen a range of composers spanning several centuries, from the 16th century to the present day. The book aims to address a historical lack of representation of black musicians and composers in the choral canon. The anthology includes music by historical composers such as Vicente Lusitano, Florence Price and Nathaniel Dett, as well as living composers including Zanaida Robles, B. E. Boykin, and Robert A. Harris. Music from the anthology has been recorded by London Voices, conducted by Shivani Rattan and produced by Ken Burton, and is available across all major streaming platforms from 16 January 2023.
