BBC News By Mark Savage image captionFlorence Price s music has been brought to wider audiences in recent years A forgotten work by the pioneering composer Florence Price has been rediscovered and performed for the first time in nearly 80 years. Price made history in 1933 when she became the first African-American woman to have a symphony performed by a major US orchestra, in Chicago. But her work faded into obscurity after her death in 1953. Much of it was thought to be lost, until a cache of music was found in her former summer house in Chicago in 2009. Musicologist Samantha Ege has spent the past two years trawling through those archives to reconstruct her solo piano pieces. Among them was Fantasie Nègre No 3 in F Minor, which was long presumed to be incomplete.
