Join us for a historic evening of music by and about Florence Price (1887-1953), including the first ever chamber opera about this early 20th century African American composer. Florence Comes Home was commissioned by Shelter Music Boston and written by local composer Francine Trester to tell the story of Florence Price, an alumna of New England Conservatory, and the 2009 discovery of her lost papers and music that catapulted Price to international recognition.
