Description

One man, a conductor,  has such love for the music of British composer Samuel Coleridge Taylor (August 15, 1875 – September 1, 1912) that he made it his mission to find his manuscripts.  The album, produced by conductor Michael Repper and performed by the National Philharmonic with violinist Curtis Stewart is a love note to Coleridge Taylor on the 150th anniversary of his birth.  Much of the music on the album titled Samuel Coleridge-Taylor are world-premiere studio recordings of his work.  Some of them have not been performed for 100 years.
