Earlier today AfriClassical posted: “Progress-Index.com: Organist Louise Temple-Rosebrook in Music of Florence B. Price & Other Women Sept. 16.” We asked Dr. Temple-Rosebrook if she could tell us what music of Florence Price she will perform. She replied:
“Sure--I'll play 8 of the variations on the spiritual, 'Peter Go Ring Dem Bells'. I'm enjoying learning and performing her music.”
