Introduction:
Condoleezza Rice was born in Birmingham, Alabama the only child of Angelena Ray Rice, a high school science, music and oratoryteacher, and John Wesley Rice, Jr., a high school guidance counselor and Presbyterian minister. Her name, Condoleezza, derives from the music-related term, con dolcezza, which in Italian means, "withsweetness". The family had roots in the American South going back to the pre-Civil War era, and worked as sharecroppers for a time after Emancipation. Rice grew up in the Titusville neighborhood at atime when the South was racially segregated.
Rice began to learn French, music, figure skating and ballet at the age of three. At the age of fifteen, she began piano classes with the goal of becominga concert pianist. While Rice ultimately did not become a professional pianist, she still practices often and plays with a chamber music group. She accompanied cellist Yo-Yo Ma playing Brahms'sViolin Sonata in D Minor at Constitution Hall in April 2002 for the National Medal of Arts Awards.
