Samuel Coleridge-Taylor Selected and annotated by Malcolm MacDonald My first glimpse of Coleridge-Taylor was in the streets of Hanley on the occasion of the production during the festival of The Death of Minnehaha [3]. (In my kindness, I was a deputising cellist in Utopia while my friend had the greater honour of playing in the festival.) A young Negro, bright and alert, passed by, accompanied by a lady whom I knew afterwards to be his wife. Both were strikingly winsome, and with Hiawatha in mind, I pictured them as journeying to the wedding feast. Some years later I was chatting with him at the rehearsal before the performance of his cantata Meg Blane [5], which some of my friends had arranged. He talked of many things that interested him, and incidentally described his home life as any elysium on earth. Coleridge-Taylor had a leaning towards Dvorak and Humperdinck, and thought Elgar as a composer was greater than Strauss. No one else could use the brass in the orchestra with the genius of Elgar. Coleridge-Taylor spoke in short, swift sentences, C At the time of the Coronation Concerts, Coleridge-Taylor had just returned from a visit to the United States, and he was overjoyed at the progress men of his race were making in cultural development. A festival of his works given by Negroes had astonished him, and he spoke with gladness of a Coleridge-Taylor Society founded by them for the cultivation of his music. He was all keen for his next visit to America. The summer of that coronation year was distressingly hot, and I fear that he was greatly debilitated by his strenuous endeavours that all should go well for British music. We met again, and after tea walked slowly through the throng in Oxford Street, where from the top of an omnibus he waved to me what was to be a final

Samuel Coleridge Taylor Samuel Coleridge-Taylor was born in London in 1875, the son of a Sierra Leonean doctor and and English mother. Apparently feeling that his career as a surgeon was blocked because he was black, his father returned to Africa, abandoning Samuel and his mother in England. At the age of fifteen, Coleridge Taylor entered the Royal College of Music to study the violin and he also studied composition with Stanford. His best known work, which was immensely popular during his lifetime, is "Hiawatha", a trilogy based upon poems by Longfellow. He also wrote other works, such as the songs "African Romances", the "African Suite" for piano, and "Five Choral Ballads", a setting of poems on slavery by Longfellow, which include influences from native African music. He visited America several times, in 1904, 1906, and 1910, where he was lionised as a role model for black composers. and was even received by President Roosevelt. He died in Croydon, in 1912.

Samuel Coleridge-Taylor Samuel Coleridge-Taylor was born on August 15, 1875 in Holborn, England (a suburb of London). His father, Daniel Hughes Taylor, was a native of Sierra Leone, and his mother was English. Daniel Taylor came to England to study medicine. He was a student at Taunton College, Somerset and later at Kings College in London. His work led him to become a member of the Royal College of Surgeons and to obtain a license from the Royal College of Physicians. His father was not a part of Coleridge-Taylor's life, returning to Sierra Leone either before Samuel's birth or while he was a very young boy. William Tortolano in his book Samuel Coleridge-Taylor; Anglo-Black Composer, 1875-1912 (Metuchen, NJ, Scarecrow, 1977) states: The young doctor became an assistant... The white patients seemed to like the young assistant... Eventually he sought a practice of his own but this became disastrous because of resentment of his color. As an assistant he was received with little reservation, but as an independent doctor he was mistrusted. Dr. Taylor returned to Africa around 1876. As a child Coleridge-Taylor studied violin and sang in the choir of St. George's Church, Croydon. At the age of fifteen he was admitted by Sir George Grove to the Royal College of Music as a violin student. While at the Royal College his interest in composition grew. With the support of Colonel Herbert Walters, one of his first benefactors, and Grove, arrangements were made that Coleridge-Taylor would study composition with Sir Charles Villiers Stanford. While studying with Stanford, Coleridge-Taylor competed for one of the nine open scholarships at the college and was awarded the fellowship in composition (1893). At that time Grove wrote, "Now you are a scholar...you are now before the world..."

Coleridge-Taylor, Samuel (1875 - 1912) The reputation of Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, son of an English mother and a father who was a doctor from Sierra Leone, has suffered in recent years, although at one time his music enjoyed considerable popularity in England, while as a conductor visiting New York he was hailed by one critic as "the black Mahler". Choral Music Coleridge-Taylor's best known composition is the cantata Hiawatha's Wedding Feast, later extended as Scenes from the Song of Hiawatha, based on the poem by Longfellow. Orchestral Music The ballet music from Hiawatha was later arranged as an orchestral suite. The Petite Suite de concert of 1910 has retained a measure of popularity also in a piano arrangement.

Classically Black: Samuel Coleridge-Taylor Listen to this program Music of African-Americans Inspired British Composer British composer Samuel Coleridge-Taylor was inspired by the black folk music of America, incorporating spirituals and other black melodies into classical music. He, in turn, became an inspiration for African-Americans in the late 1890s as a symbol of what free black men could achieve. WILL-FM’s Roger Cooper looks at Coleridge-Taylor’s life and music in this year’s Classically Black. Coleridge-Taylor, who frequently traveled to the United States to hold workshops for black musicians and composers, had a large influence on the music and philosophical views of the composers associated with the Harlem Renaissance. The worldwide recognition he achieved for his accomplishments was a source of pride for W.E.B. DuBois and other American blacks. Coleridge-Taylor was best known for his Hiawatha’s Wedding Feast, which incorporated the spiritual “Nobody Knows the Trouble I’ve Seen” in its overture. By using the melodies of traditional American and African black songs in his compositions, Coleridge-Taylor wanted to do for black folk music what Brahms did for Hungarian folk music, Dvorak did for Bohemian music and Grieg for Norwegian music.
