Join us this June as we honor the rich diversity in classical music with our special educational blog series! Stay tuned to this page as we will update this post all month long. On Mondays, we’ll celebrate groundbreaking African American composers, and on Fridays, we’ll shine a spotlight on influential LGBTQ+ musical figures.
Let’s come together to celebrate their stories and the diverse tapestry of our musical heritage!
To kick off this series, we are thrilled to feature the incredible Florence Price, a trailblazer who embodies the spirit of both celebrations.
