Very little of her music was published in her lifetime (1887-1953) but hundreds of never-before seen manuscripts were found in 2009. While her music is firmly in the European tradition, influences of the American South and Black life are prevalent, as demonstrated by several titles in the collection, which was curated and edited by Dr. Michael Clark. Every piece chosen deserves to be widely known and performed. The book also features detailed critical notes by Clark, and a foreword by Dr. Leah Claiborne.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the judges' comments at the 2026 Music and Drama Education Awards: “The judges felt that \u003ci\u003eFlorence Price: Rediscovered Gems\u003c\/i\u003e promoted diversity by highlighting African American women composers and female representation, aligning with key themes for young people.
