The Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s season-opening concert led by Music Director Riccardo featured Florence Price’s Andante moderato, an orchestral adaptation of a movement from her String Quartet in G Major. Price, who spent the majority of her career in Chicago, became the first African American woman to have her music performed by a major American orchestra when the CSO gave the world premiere of her First Symphony in 1933.

Recorded September 25, 2021
