Book excerpt: His life is the stuff of legend: born in 1739 of a slave mother and a French noble father, he became the finest swordsman of his age, an insider at the court of The Sun King, and, most of all, an accomplished musician who came to be known as the “Black Mozart.” His name is Joseph Bologne, though he was better known as Monsieur de Saint-George, and, because of his origins, “the American.” Alain Guédé recreates the story of this memorable individual, whose musical compositions are at long last being rediscovered and whose story will never again be forgotten. “Virtuoso, seducer, colonel, revolutionary...the extraordinary life of the first black composer.”--Le Monde “Fascinating.”--U.S. News and World Report “Black History” Round-Up “Vividly recreating the lively, often horrific culture of Creole plantation life...Guede’s narrative, in Gilda Roberts’ elegant translation, glides through French history....While mindful of the obstacles Saint-George had to overcome, this biography shows that his life and musical career were pretty amazing in their own right.” --St. Petersburg Times Alain Guédé is a French journalist. A leading expert on the life and music of Saint-George, he has organized a website, www.saint-george.fr.st/, that follows developments in the rediscovery of this extraordinary figure.
