Description
MARIAN ANDERSON: Let Freedom Ring!
• The 1939Lincoln Memorial Concert (First restored release)
• The 1961 Copenhagen Concert (First Release)
By 1939 Marian Anderson was feted worldwide, but a concert planned for Washington's Constitution Hall was blocked for one reason: she was black. With Eleanor Roosevelt's support the concert took place instead on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. It was a triumph - now, perhaps, too little recalled.
This release would be merited simply because it is music-making of the highest order, but this is more - it's an important piece of American history.
The Copenhagen Concert is a further triumph. Held in especially high regard in Scandinavia (Sibelius adapted some of his works for her), Anderson basks in the audience's affection. -
