The Florence Price Festival will be held on the weekend of February 5 and 6 on the campuses of Texas Lutheran University and the University of the Incarnate Word (UIW). All events are free and open to the public. The goal is to promote the music of Florence Price while providing an opportunity for students to share their creative and scholarly endeavors with a wider community. The interdisciplinary festival will include a TLU concert like the one shown above, keynote speaker Michael Cooper, and appearances by many others for vocal and composition masterclasses, poetry readings, and the student research symposium.

Florence Price Recording Project

Dr. Walwyn looks forward to completing the first of four volumes of music for solo piano and some chamber work of Florence Price. She anticipates the completion of the first volume by July 2021. Updates will be announced here at our Florence Price News.
Most of the works to be recorded will be premiere recordings. It is a very exciting project, and we hope that you will check back to see how things are coming especially as we get closer to Florence’s birthday, April 9.

We are accepting donations towards the recording project.
