Samuel Coleridge-Taylor (1875-1912) was one of the founding signatories to the 1900 Pan-African Conference in London and Britain’s greatest Black classical composer. The event is to be held just a few yards from where this unique musician and proponent of equality for all was born, in Theobalds Street, Holborn.
