Florence Price was a prolific American composer whose race and gender made it difficult for her contributions to join the widely accepted musical canon in the decades following her life. A trailblazer, Price is considered the first Black woman recognized as a symphonic composer and was the first to have her music performed by a major American orchestra when the Chicago Symphony Orchestra gave the world premiere of her Symphony No. 1 in 1933.
"Adoration" in its original form is one of Price's compositions for organ and fits within the genre of her semisecular output. My goal in transcribing this pieces is to grant performers exposure to Price's story and the gift of performing her music outside of its intended medium.
