Florence Price (1887-1953), an American composer and pianist, was a trailblazer as the first African American woman to gain recognition in classical music.
Her compositions, blending traditional Western styles with African American influences, include symphonies, chamber works, and the acclaimed Symphony No. 1. Price's legacy continues to inspire diversity in classical music.
