The Program:
Dietricht Buxtehude / Chaconne in E minor
Quinn Mason / Reflection on a Memorial
Florence Price / Piano Concerto in One Movement
Beethoven / Symphony No. 7
Conductor Tito Muos will open the final program of the season with works by Buxtehude and Quinn Mason and close with Beethovens joyous Symphony No. 7. Beethoven called this work one of the happiest products of my poor talents...the perfect choice to conclude Symphony San Jose's 20th anniversary season. Florence Price was widely performed during the 1930s, but by the fifties her work had dropped from view. Since the rediscovery of the full score for her Piano Concerto in One Movement, Michelle Canns exquisite, authoritative performances have reintroduced Price to audiences and critics alike. Passionate, part Romantic, part bluesy, the Concerto is a small sample of Prices repertory.
Ages: 15 to adult

Florence Beatrice Price (1887 – 1953) was an American Classical Composer, noted as the first African-American Woman to be recognized as a symphonic composer, and to have a composition played by a major orchestra.
Pianist Michelle Cann made her orchestral debut at age fourteen and has since performed as a soloist with numerous ensembles including The Philadelphia Orchestra, The Cleveland Orchestra, the Florida Orchestra, the North Carolina Symphony, and the New Jersey Orchestra. Her ‘exquisite, authoritative’ performances have reintroduced Price to audiences and critics alike.
