BEYOND THE YEARS. LYRIC OPERA CHICAGO. FESTIVAL FARNESE, PARMA, III EDIZIONE

For the third and final installment of her three part series, join Lyric Unlimited’s Artist-in-Residence, Karen Slack, as she presents her Grammy-winning album, Beyond the Years. Celebrating the legacy of Florence B. Price, internationally renowned soprano Karen Slack seamlessly blends a historically overlooked musical legacy with present-day artistic excellence.

This Grammy-winning, groundbreaking album features superb recordings of 19 unpublished pieces (including 16 world premiere recordings) by composer Florence B. Price, considered the first African-American woman to have a composition played by a major orchestra.

Beyond the Years is in collaboration with ONEcomposer, an organization dedicated to celebrating composers who have been historically erased. ONEcomposer is inspired by the long-lasting legacy of Florence B. Price.

This enchanting event will take listeners on a journey of rediscovery, reflection, and reimagination. Immediately following, Karen will engage in a moderated post show conversation.
