I hope you get visited by the ghosts of Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, the Chevalier St Georges, George Bridgetower and Florence Price just so they can point and laugh.

Retracting the dedication to Bridgetower was a mistake! Kreutzer didn't even like the damn thing!

Still regretting the decision to retract the dedication of my Violin Sonata No. 9 to George Bridgetower.
One can only imagine just how many times Copeland encountered such anti-Black racism
Broadly speaking, Classical Music is deeply invested in myths of white racial homogeneity despite historical evidence that dark-skinned people of African descent have contributed to it since the 14th c. (at least)

When folks gripe about DEI, remind them who benefited from shutting out dancers like Copeland. That pattern runs through our whole history.

African-British violinist George Bridgetower, like many Black artists, is often erased from the narrative. GB inspired Ludwig von Beethoven’s Bridgetower Sonata for #violin & #piano (renamed Kreutzer Sonata because Beethoven fell out with Bridgetower) 🎻 🖤

George Bridgetower, Bardic College of Creation. His violins virtuosisms went so hard, object started to dance (some still haven't stopped). he's the hardest working bard in the land, so much he has a personal luthier following him around, because he keeps breaking strings.

And Ludwig van Beethoven of course knew and work with George Polgreen Bridgetower, so even he didn't live and compose is a homogenously white European cultural context

Let's just rename it the Bridgetower Sonata, already. I wrote it for him.
The premiere of Beethoven's “Kreutzer Sonata” took place on this day, 222 years ago in Vienna, Austria, with Beethoven at the piano and violinist George Bridgetower.

It’s Beethoven’s Violin Sonata No. 9, Op. 47 — better known as the Kreutzer. It was originally written for and premiered with George Bridgetower in 1803, before Beethoven later changed the dedication to Rodolphe Kreutzer.
