A direct contemporary of Scott Joplin, Harry Thacker Burleigh, composer and renowned baritone, was one of a small group of pioneering black composers to collect and transcribe the many songs, spirituals and dances created during slavery and afterwards. Burleigh's grandfather was a slave and taught him many of the songs he knew. Burleigh was also the man who introduced Dvorak to spirituals when the Czech composer heard Burleigh singing them to himself whilst working in the home of Edward MacDowell's mother.
Published in 1910, this beautiful piano suite is one of only two extant instrumental compositions by Burleigh, with the vast majority of his hundreds of compositions being for voice and piano. The six movements, in a relatively simple arrangement for a small orchestra, are:
0:00 Through Moanin' Pines
2:25 The Frolic
4:59 In de Col' Moonlight
7:34 A Jubilee
11:09 On Bended Knee
14:35 A New Hidin' Place
