Beautiful ♥️
My 7 year old granddaughter who just learned Heller Avalanche, recently saw Grammy winner, Michelle Cann play pieces composed by Margaret Bonds and Florence Price. Incredible show. She loved it.
I see one person gave a thumb down review. Lord Almighty I can’t understand why. That was beautiful.
Love how it at times sounds like gospel songs I heard at church growing up
I've just heard about this great composer through an online recital by African and African-diaspora composers streamed from Brazil...! I'm so glad the 1st composition I found on RUclips was this sonata movement, performed extremely beautifully by this GREAT AFRICAN AMERICAN PIANIST...I'm just in love with this touching music and with this sensitive GREAT ARTIST..Congratulations y'all!!!
We must think this fantastic Lady in the same house with Copland, Gershwin, Barber, Ives, Bernstein, Joplin. Monk and you name it.
I hope you see this, Antonio. Your words were so aptly put. The names you put Florence Price in with were so spot-on I simply had to respond to your comment from 2 years ago. Like a message in a bottle in the sea, it was there for me to stumble upon.
So delighted I did.
What a stunningly musical performance by Cann!
I just saw Michelle perform this at the Kimmell Center this past weekend, it was amazing, I'm so happy I found this on RUclips. I wanted to hear this same version again.
Gorgeous! Such sensitive playing of such deep music, so full of longing and nostalgia.
a beautiful composition and a beautiful performance. I'm so glad I've found this. Thank you.
Amazing, Michelle. Just stunning!

This music is unabashedly American. We can thank an enslaved group of people who never gave up on creating beauty wherever they could and keeping their sounds alive. Then passing them down and sharing with the world!
