Florence B. Price (1887-1953)
Yannick Nezet-Seguin
Sergio A. Mims writes:
Last week the Philadelphia Orchestra
announced in their announcement of concerts for their new 2020-21 season
that the orchestra will record all of Florence Price's symphonies
with music director Yannick Nezet-Seguin conducting for the famed
classical music label Deutsche Grammophon.
The
recordings will include the first recording ever of Price's Symphony
No. 3 though the work has been performed live in concert. However, since the PR announcement from the orchestra stated that the recording
will include all of Price's symphonies, the question remains if it will
also include the presumed long lost Symphony No. 2 though Price experts
believe that the score remains among the yet to be recovered collection
of music scores that were water damaged in her vacation home.
