    Feature: William Christopher Handy :
   
William Christopher Handy (November 16, 1873 – March 28, 1958) was a composer and musician who referred to himself as the Father of the Blues. Handy was one of the most influential songwriters in the United States. One of many musicians who played the distinctively American blues music, William didn't create the blues genre but was the first to publish music in the blues form, thereby taking the blues from a regional music style (Delta blues) with a limited audience to a new level of popularity. William was an educated musician who used elements of folk music in his compositions. He was scrupulous in documenting the sources of his works, which frequently combined stylistic influences from various performers.

The blues genre is vast, so wide and so deep, a genre which has evolved in a hundred years and beyond, long before the word 'Blues' was thought of. So many shades of blue, so much colour. At PD Productions we research, gather blues music, it's history and influences in every shade as far back as it's possible to go from every corner of the world, it's what we do.
