Ethan Iverson has writen an in-depth interview with George Walker, the first African-American composer to win the Pulitzer Prize for music (1996) that dissects in detail a number of his works. I contribute a guest post that anthologizes/digests a number of my own pieces from the Detroit Free Press that touch on Walker's music and/or issues related to black classical composers. Ethan also has sidebar about Walker's compelling memoir. http://dothemath.typepad.com/dtm/interview-with-george-walker.html
