Adagio Cantabile: From Cinnamon Grove, Conductor Score

This gorgeous arrangement features the Adagio Cantabile, the second movement of Cinnamon Grove by R. Nathaniel Dett, who was the first composer of African descent to graduate from Oberlin College in 1908. This setting by Dión Morales conjures powerful emotions as the stunning harmonies mesmerize listeners until they are left in tears. Beautiful. (2:45)
