Join LSO on April 9th, 2021 for an evening of birthdays! Celebrate Beethoven’s 250th and Florence Price’s 134th with some of their greatest masterpieces. Solo winds and strings perform an intimate performance of Beethoven’s masterful Septet (op. 20). LSO’s strings will be featured in “Klap Ur Handz”, the second movement from Daniel Bernard Roumain’s “[Rosa] Parks” string quartet, and will celebrate the great African-American composer Florence Price with her Andante Moderato for String Orchestra. To conclude the concert, LSO Principal Keyboard Richard Fountain takes the stage with the orchestra for Beethoven’s spectacular Piano Concerto No. 2. View the event page here.

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.
