Though representing differing schools of thought regarding African American classical music, the composers here are united by their roots in black history, culture and its rich musical heritage. Drawing upon jazz and spirituals - 'I Want Jesus to Walk with Me' serving as the source material - Margaret Bonds' Montgomery Variations engages with African American history, namely the Montgomery bus boycott and the 1963 Birmingham church bombing.
