To Be Young, Gifted and Black, a new book by Kadiatu Kanneh-Mason, offers an intimate look at how her children navigated their professional path into the classical music world while exploring their cultural, racial, and national identities. A recommended read to understand the prejudices faced by young musicians of color in the classical music industry, and how we can help mitigate these challenges in our roles as professionals.
