Florence Price “Five Folksongs in Counterpoint” for String Quartet
Filmed on stage at Davies Symphony Hall, January 2021
With my SFS colleagues I performed 2 pieces by African American women who appear on both of these lists, born a century apart, “Five Folksongs in Counterpoint” by Florence Price (1887-1953) and “Strum” by Jessie Montgomery (b. 1984).
