This preliminary biblio-discography, prepared on the suggestion of Dr. Samuel A. Floyd, Jr., partially supersedes and amplifies three earlier publications: Teacher's Guide to Recordings of Music by Black Composers, which appeared in College Music Symposium (v8, Fall 1973, p114119), Recent Recordings, published in The Black Perspective in Music (v5n2, Fall 1977, p225-227), and Concert Music and Spirituals, issued in 1981 by the Institute for Research in Black American Music, Fisk University. It differs from these, however, in that the only works cited here are those that have been both published and recorded. Because of these two criteria, the repertoire herein will not represent the totality of black musical culture, not even within the limitation of a style or idiom, or with regard to a given composer. This concordance may then be of interest to libraries, private collectors, teachers, music directors of radio stations, and, particularly, performers, who may wish to examine the scores and recordings simultaneously. As was true with these earlier publications, the recordings cited are generally restricted to those within my personal collection and which have been commercially available since 1950. Data on publications came from research to be published within the set, Bibliography of Black Music, to be issued in the near future by Greenwood Press. Supplementing this is the information gathered by Ms. McKenzie and Mr. Vlaun from the Morgan State University Choral Library, with the kind cooperation of Dr. Nathan Carter, Director of Choral Activities at Morgan. This is not to suggest that the collections consulted are lending libraries, however. It must be immediately admitted that this is not an exhaustive list. While it is not too difficult to acknowledge the representation of major labels and, at times, of the smaller labels, the most ephemeral and least known recordings of all are those issued by our black campuses, which often contain excellent and authoritative performances and, no less, un-
