STILL, WILLIAM GRANT BIOGRAPHY
William Grant Still is one of the most esteemed of all African American composers. One of his cultural heroes was Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, the brilliant Afro-British composer whose three visits to the United States helped lay the foundation for the Harlem Renaissance. A young Still wished to imitate Coleridge- Taylor, even attempting to train his hair to grow in a similar fashion.
His mothers hopes for her sons professional career lost out in his college days to his ardent love of music. He had a variety of experiences by 1930, including editorial work for W. C. Handy, arranging for jazz ensembles, and performance as a pit musician. This was the year that he addressed the goals of the Harlem Renaissance by the idealisation of the folkloric with his first symphony.

Brad Foust Articles in this Topic Discussions in this Topic Jul 17, 2000
America has produced composers from all walks of life and ethnic backgrounds, and William Grant Still (1895-1978) is considered by many to be the 'Dean of African-American Composers.' Still was born in Woodville, Mississippi to two successful teachers. His father died when he was only three months old, but his mother remarried a few years later, and her husband was a lover of music and literature. It is from his stepfather that Still learned to also love music, and this influence would prove to shape the course of his life. Still was a bright student, and was the valedictorian of his 1911 high school class. When his mother suggested that he attend Wilberforce College in Ohio to pursue a career in medicine, he agreed. However, the urge to perform and compose music proved to be too great, and he left Wilberforce in 1916 to arrange music for W.C. Handy. During his stint with Handy, he also studied at Oberlin College. The 1920's found Still involved in all aspects of musical life. He settled in New York, where he played in pit orchestras for musicals and dance productions. In 1922, he also began studying composition with George Whitfield Chadwick, and in 1923 with Edgard Varese. During this time, Still was composing, and the first large-scale piece to be recognized was the 'Afro-American Symphony' (1931), which is still his best-known work. Still went on to compose such pieces as the ballet 'Lenox Avenue' (1936), 'And They Lynched Him on a Tree' (1940), 'A Bayou Legend' (1940), and the opera 'Troubled Island' (1941), which dealt with the slave rebellion in Haiti.

(1952) Biography of William Grant Still by Joni Etta Boyd (SHS) On May 11, 1895, William Grant Still was born in Woodville, Mississippi . Still, a musical legend of the 1900's, created a beat of his own in the music world. This musician, composer, and instrumentalist was blessed with more fame than any other African-American of his time. Although blacks were not prominent in the musical world in the 1900's, he overcame the discrimination and transcended many other obstacles in his own way to become an important composer of the twentieth century. Carrie Still knew her son had a musical gift after he began to make toy violins at a young age. She then decided to pay for him to take violin lessons (Sewell and Dwight 286). Still began writing music at age sixteen (Verongos). He was very intelligent in high school, graduating as valedictorian in 1911 (Sewell and Dwight 287). Still's goals were high. Thinking only of music, Still set out to achieve his goal of becoming an accomplished African-American musician. His mother supported her son's decisions. However, she knew African-Americans did not often succeed in the music industry. Her good sense and determination strongly influenced Still's life (Sewell and Dwight 286). Taking his mother's advice, William attended Wilberforce University in Ohio to major in science (Sewell and Dwight 287).

Still Oh, gee, I enjoyed it greatly. That is a brilliant beginning. S What were some of the activities on the program?
Still They showed what the young people are contributing and what they have gained in their studies. They came through with flying colors. Those kids are certainly well trained. The conducting was good and on the whole, it was a very fine program. S All right, Dr. Still, could you tell us something about your early life, where you were born, something about your parents and your brothers and/or sisters?
Still I was born in Mudville, Miss., May 11, 1895. Both my mother and father were teachers and after they married they moved to Woodville Miss. They had lived before in Huntsville Alabama, and both of them taught at normal school there. Mr. Konsel, I think, was the head of the school. Then they moved, both my mother and my father, they married and moved to Woodville. Now, it was a fortunate thing for me that they were both interested in things, reading books is more or less of a nature whose function it is to teach young people new things.

The scale of his musical knowledge paved the way for Still to become a skilled and prolific composer. In 1931, with the premiere performance of Still's Afro-American Symphony , he became the first African-American composer to write a symphony performed by an American orchestra. Over the next 20 years, 38 orchestras in the United States and Europe would have the honor of playing Afro-American Symphony Still is best known as a composer, but he played a range of other roles in the music industry. In 1916, for example, he served as an arranger for blues musician W. C. Handy. In New York, Still played alongside jazz greats Fletcher Henderson and James P. Johnson in the Harlem Symphony. He later was named music director of the Black Swan jazz label, a subsidiary of Harry Pace's Phonograph Company, which billed itself as "The Only Genuine Colored Record."

WILLIAM GRANT STILL
William Grant Still was born on May 11, 1895, in Woodville, Mississippi, to William Grant Still, Sr. and Carrie Lena Fambro. Before he was a year old, Still's father died, and his widowed mother arrived in Little Rock, Arkansas, with "Babe Will" to be with her mother, Anne Fambro. Carrie Still taught English in the Little Rock schools, and she did eventually remarry; Charles B. Shepperson, a railway postal clerk, became Still's stepfather. Still's early years were influenced by his mother's discipline and love of learning, his maternal grandmother's singing of Negro spirituals, and his stepfather's collection of Red Seal phonographs. After graduating as valedictorian in his high school class, Still enrolled in Wilberforce University in 1911 in the Bachelor of Science degree program. Although his grades were above average, Still spent much of his time playing and directing the band, performing with the Wilberforce string quartet, and perusing Carl Fischer catalogues. Leaving Wilberforce before graduation, William Grant Still received a broad musical education that included arranging for Paul Whiteman and Artie Shaw, performing in the bands of W.C. Handy and the "Shuffle Along" band of Eubie Blake, and working in the Pace and Handy Music Publishing Company, as well as studying composition at Oberlin College, at the New England Conservatory with George Whitefield Chadwick, and with Edgar Varese.

Grant Still
*On this date, William Grant Still was born in 1895. From Woodville, Mississippi and reared in Little Rock, Arkansas; he was an African-American composer and musician.
William Grant Still and his first wife Grace Bundy had four children. Still took a break from his musical studies at Oberlin during World War I to join the Navy. At this time the only job available to African-Americans in the Navy was mess attendant. Yet, despite this discriminatory treatment, he and many other African-Americans chose to reinforce their claim on democracy and freedom and fight for liberty overseas, although they did not have full freedom at home. During his tour of duty, he was relieved of some of his mess responsibilities to perform for officers' meals after it was discovered that he could play the violin.
Still was the first African-American to conduct a major symphony orchestra, the first African-American to have an opera, Troubled Island (1949), performed by a major opera company, and the first to have an opera, A Bayou Legend, performed on national television (1981). The period from 1926 to the early 1940s was Still's most prolific. During this time he wrote Levee Land (1925); a suite for orchestra and soprano that combines traditional western musical elements with jazz; From the Black Belt (1926); a work for chamber orchestra based on seven short character sketches; Sahdji (1930); a choral ballet based on an African story, and Afro-American Symphony.
