1996년 샌디에고에서 한국계(재일교포 3세) 어머니와 흑인 아버지 사이에서 태어난 랜달 구스비는 7세에 바이올린을 시작, 9세에 잭슨빌심포니(플로리다주)와 협연하며 데뷔했다. 13세에는 링컨센터 에버리피셔홀(현 데이빗 게펜홀)에서 뉴욕필하모닉의 청소년 콘서트로 연주했다.

아프리칸-아메리칸 음악에 바치는 헌사인 'Roots'는 흑인 영가들로부터 시작해 오늘날의 현대음악 작품들까지 이르는 긴 변천사를 고스란히 담고 있다. 수록곡에는 아프리카계 미국인 작곡가인 플로렌스 프라이스의 작품 중 전세계 최초로 녹음된 세 곡을 포함하여 윌리엄 그랜트 스틸과 콜리지 테일러 퍼킨슨의 작품들, 콘트라 베이스 연주자이며 미국의 음악 관련 단체인 스핑크스에서 만난 인연으로 펄먼 뮤직 프로그램과 Young Concert Artists를 함께 경험한 동료 재비어 폴리가 이번 앨범을 위해 특별히 작곡한 곡에 이르기까지 다양한 작품이 고루 포진되어 있다.

 

구스비는 줄리아드 음대에서 대여한 바이올린 Guadagnini와 스트라디바리 협회에서 1735년 Guarneri Del Gesu를 연주하다가 현재는 삼성문화재단으로부터 대여받은 1708년형 "구 스트라우스" 스트라디바리우스 바이올린을 연주하고 있다.

All four outdoor performances begin at 8:00 p.m. and conclude with fireworks by Santore’s World Famous Fireworks. 

 

Though this marks Wilkins’s first time conducting the Concerts in the Parks, he made his NY Phil debut in 2015, when he led a subscription program titled Great African American Singers and Their Legacy.
