SAMUEL COLERIDGE-TAYLOR

15th August 1875 --- 1st September 1912

Samuel Coleridge-Taylor,  was an English composer,  his father came  from Sierra Leone in Africa,  I think he was a doctor
who came over to England met and fell in love with a nurse, and it was in London that Samuel was born. He showed early
talent  but because of his  dark complection was  frown upon  by his tutors,  but was still supported  in his  study of music
because of his talent.

Samuel took up the study of the Violin, piano and went on to study composition at London's Royal College of Music.

He later went and  lived in America to try and get away  from all the prejudice he faced in his efforts to become known in
England.

The pieces I have done below are from his American and Africa period, and he died of pneumonia.

I like to thank Ed Schaffer for his help with the bio.
