Dr. Karen Walwyn will speak on composer Florence Price, the first female African American classical composer to gain national recognition. Price's music was lost for over 30 years and was rediscovered in her abandoned home in 2009. Walwyn was the first to premiere the Concerto in One Movement for Piano with Orchestra and is a sought-after interpreter and scholar for lectures and recitals on Price across the country. There will be a Q&A after the lecture.
