Classic FM includes Dr. Anne Lundy in its list of 13 outstanding Black conductors.
13 Black conductors, past and present, who’ve inspired us from the podium.
Classical music wouldn’t be the same without these trailblazers. From Rudolph Dunbar to Anne ‘Georgianne’ Lundy, these are the late and living Black conductors you should know.
We salute just 13 of the many Black conductors, past and present, who have taken to the podium and changed the course of classical music in doing so.
Musicians of Tik Tok: Keon Gooding
We are going to have to start a whole category dedicated to Tik Tok for the blog. For those who may not know, Tik Tok is an app where people can post videos, mostly dance videos to music, mostly rap and R&B. One Zoomer (a member of Gen Z) described it as “the digital clubhouse of her generation”. The app is hugely popular with more than Gen Z’ers as people of all ages are getting in on the dance trends, having fun, and making entertaining videos. For me, the appeal is the discovery of new music and so one day while scrolling through my FYP (For You Page), which acts like a talent discovery page, I came across Keon Gooding’s video for the dance challenge to Chris Brown’s Go Crazy song. But, instead of dancing Keon busted out his horn.
So check out this young musicians socials for more music: Tik Tok, IG,Twitter, But even if you don’t, I’m sure you’ll be hearing Keon’s sound some time in the near future.
