Werk: Symphony no. 1 in E minor

Zwei starke Frauen der Musik traten beim Musikfest Berlin im Konzert des Philadelphia Orchestra hervor: als Solistin Lisa Batiashvili und als Komponistin Florence Price.

Following a sudden cancelation from Angel Blue, concertmaster David Kim and associate concertmaster Juliette Kang gamely offered the Double Violin Concerto on presumably no rehearsal.

There was already a resurgence of interest in Price in recent years, but the flurry of activity to programme her works this year as a response to Black Lives Matter suggests things are finally changing.
