Description:
From the large work Black Pierrot, Jazzonia (1923) describes the scene in a Harlem café of the 1920s in which 'six long-headed jazzers play, ' and beautiful girls dance. After a short introductory section, the music moves into a lively ragtime-complete with drum set-that forms the background for the remainder of the piece. Altogether, it is something of a poetic and musical glance at the era of the Harlem Renaissance in which so much African-American music, art, and poetry emerged as vital forces in the arts. Duration: 4:30
