Florence Price (1887-1953) was a remarkable African American composer. She studied at the New England Conservatory, taught in the Music Department at Shorter College in Little Rock, AR, and headed the Music Department at Clark University in Atlanta, GA. Her compositions synthesize the traditions and idioms of post-Romantic music with the melodic and harmonic characteristics of African American folksong. Her Fantasie No. 1 in G minor for Violin and Piano is dated July 15-16, 1933.
