Robert Nathaniel Dett was one of the first African American composers. Dett, a resident of Canada, began playing the piano at the age of three and relentlessly pursued his musical education and career. He was the first composer to combine European classical music with Negro spiritual and folk music. Throughout his career, Dett persevered despite racism.
