Artists associated with the Harlem Renaissance were more interested in fostering musical traditions that they understood as more thoroughly African American-blues, jazz, and spirituals-than in encouraging the development of modernist art music. T/F

True.

Explanation:

The Harlem Renaissance was the late 1920s African-American cultural movement that was born in the Harlem area of New York City amid the social and intellectual upheaval that erupted in the African-American community in the early twentieth century.

The Harlem Renaissance was a period of unprecedented artistic creativity and expression among African American artists. In music, artists associated with the Harlem Renaissance were more interested in fostering musical traditions that they understood more fully African Americans - blues, jazz and spiritual - than in encouraging the development of modernist artistic music.
