Valaida Snow, renowned musician and composer (1904-1956), conducting an orchestra in London in October 1934. I was proud to be able to include this photo in my book, Vintage Black Glamour and even more thrilled that Ms. Snow was one of the inspirations for the black tie gala of I hope to see you in October at one of my favorite cities in the world, Charleston, South Carolina for the third annual Colour of Music Festival. Colour of Music celebrates current and historic Black classical musicians. This year, the festival will have various events from October 21-25 celebrating Black classical musicians, Charleston’s contribution to classical music and much more. I am honored that Vintage Black Glamour was part of the inspiration for the festival’s Inaugural Gala and Benefit Performance on Saturday, October 24th at the brand new Gaillard Center. Tickets for the performances and/or the black-tie gala are on sale via The Gaillard Center http://bit.ly/VBGColourofMusic -- source link
