Rachel Barton Pine plays with passion and conviction, thrilling audiences worldwide with her dazzling technique, lustrous tone, and infectious joy in music-making!
In celebration of Black History Month, violinist Rachel Barton Pine makes her FSO debut to perform the recently rediscovered Florence Price Violin Concerto No. 2. Completed in 1952, the year before Price's death, the manuscript was never published and considered lost forever. In 2009, it was discovered by accident by renovators in an abandoned house Price once owned as a summer home outside of Chicago. Throughout her career, Rachel Barton Pine has been dedicated to performing the music of black composers and their previously overlooked music into today's cultural consciousness.
She performs on the "ex-Bazzini, ex-Soldat" Joseph Guarnerius "del Gesu" (Cremona 1742) violin. Pine performs with the world's leading orchestras including the Philadelphia Orchestra, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Camerata Salzburg, and the Chicago, Vienna and Detroit Symphony Orchestras.
