NYTimes.com: "Jasmine Muhammad is the soloist" for "songs by Florence Price"

Florence B. Smith (1887-1953)

Jasmine Muhammad, Soprano



ORCHESTRA OF ST. LUKE’S at Temple Emanu-El (July 30, 7 p.m.). The free Naumburg Orchestral Concerts are always worth a visit, and this one is particularly so for a performance of songs by Florence Price, whose music is starting to receive a welcome renaissance. Jasmine Muhammad is the soloist. Also on the bill are Anna Clyne’s “Prince of Clouds,” Copland’s “Appalachian Spring” and Barber’s “Adagio for Strings.”
