Samuel Coleridge-Taylor bol hudobný skladateľ a dirigent, ktorého diela boli charakterizované pan-africkými vplyvmi. Čerpal inšpiráciu z afroamerických skúseností, často prostredníctvom spolupráce s básnikmi a ako reakcia na duchovnú hudbu. Jeho tvorba, ktorá získala uznanie v Anglicku aj Amerike, odrážala hlboké spojenie s africkým dedičstvom a afroamerickou kultúrou. Coleridge-Taylorove skladby, ako napríklad tie inšpirované Longfellowovou Hiawathou, si získali obľubu pre svoju emocionálnu hĺbku a kultúrnu rezonanciu.
