Review of Black Classical Masters: Moses Hogan series

Davis Person has crafted 4 fine features on black composer/arranger Moses Hogan, rich with personal stories, and each showcasing one of Hogan's striking arrangements of negro spirtuals; each a gem of musical thought and inspiration. This series of four 5 minute pieces swould work equally well on a classical or american folk music formatted station. Beautifully produced and narrated, this offering from the Black Classical Masters series will provide an opportunity for listeners to sit back and enjoy a few rich moments in American Classical music not usually heard.
