AfriClassical has received an E-mail inquiry from a conductor who is considering a performance of Florence Price's Symphony No. 3 in C Minor and would like to know how to obtain the score and parts. Our friend Suzanne Flandreau is Head Librarian and Archivist at the Center for Black Music Research, Columbia College Chicago. She tells us the individual “also contacted the CBMR Library reference e-mail. Rae Linda Brown is preparing an edition of the Price Symphony No. 3 (which never was formally in print, although it was recorded by the Women’s Philharmonic). I sent him to her for more information. I hope her edition comes out soon!”
Rae Linda Brown, Ph.D. is Associate Professor of Music (Musicology) and Director of Undergraduate Studies, Department of Music, University of Southern California Irvine: “Rae Linda Brown research has focused on American music. She has completed a biography of composer Florence B. Price, The Heart of a Woman: The Life and Music of Florence B. Price (forthcoming University of Illinois Press) and has edited many of Price's scores for performance.” “Price's Symphony in E Minor and the Symphony No. 3 in C Minor will be published in Music in the United States of America (A-R Editions).” [Florence B. Price (1887-1953) is profiled at AfriClassical.com]
