Department of Performing Arts
Matthew Brown, conductor

American University Symphony Orchestra will present, for the first time in its history, Florence Price's Symphony no. 3 in C minor. Florence Price was a Black female American composer who was largely overlooked during her career, and even more so posthumously, due to her race and gender. Her music is a force that the orchestral world is finally starting to reckon with. Also featuring Wagner's Prelude and Liebestod from Tristan und Isolde.
