Er-Gene Kahng
United States
Приєднався 29 вер 2011
Er-Gene Kahng (she/her) is a violinist and professor whose work came to light through her advocacy of American classical composer, Florence Price. Her recording of Price’s Violin Concertos has been cited and praised by sources such as The Guardian, The Wall Street Journal, The New Yorker, and The New York Times as an important contribution to American classical music, and has aired on programs like NPR’s Songs we Love, and APM’s Performance Today.
Er-Gene is concertmaster of the Fort Smith Symphony Orchestra and the Arkansas Philharmonic Orchestra; she is co-Artistic Director of the Pierrot+ ensemble, Khemia Ensemble. Er-Gene aims to continue the work of equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging by exploring the ways contemporary American classical music can intersect with, and highlight, forgotten narratives of the past and thus shape the musical values of the present and future.

Just amazing!
Mastro Florence B. Price. This is very beautiful acknowledgement. This is the music 🎵🎶🎶 I heard in American movies as a child. I am a black American born 1962 and I played classical guitar for about 30 years, studied in the Country Sweden. I finally realized that Florence Price music put an everlasting pattern in my life. My thanks and acknowledgement reaches out to Florence Beatrice Price, William G. Still and Joseph Bolonge a.k.a. St George De Chevalier...
A wonderful documentary. Thank you for shedding more light on this remarkable woman's music and achievements.
How come I never met the name of this genius?
The piece at the beggining sort of reminds me of Tchaikovsky's Andante cantabile.
Nice documentary. My only nitpick would be to ask why the thumbnail is not of Florence herself.
Thank you!🙏🏿🌹❤️😷😇🥰🥰
Er-Gene, I remember you with great fondness. You sound wonderful here. (I performed with Er-Gene for several years in various Arkansas orchestras.)
Stunning
Lovely piece. What happened to the Allegretto?
It did not get recorded!
Played beautifully--with warmth and clarity!
Arkansas' Celebrate! Maya Project is so grateful for this documentary, honoring yet another woman of greatness with Arkansas roots.
Thank you for this fun New Year mix of food and music!
😛
Not on FB anymore. Happy New Year!
Good for you! Miss you but looking forward to staying in touch here!! :)
Thank you for your time in researching this excellent moment in time. To know us, we must learn... in order to learn about us, we must teach...
Just gorgeous!!
Thank you so much, Janice! :)
Watching on Christmas Day. So moved.
Lovely performance!! This must be the second set of "Negro Folksongs in Counterpoint"...or perhaps this is the "Negro set" of c.1927, and the 1951 set is the "Set of Five"!! I had read that FP had composed more than one set of pieces!! Are they available in print?? Please advise!!
This is an amazing story and wonderful music. Thanks for posting!
Today's issue of The Imaginative Conservative had an article on 5 "must listen to" classical albums and Florence Price was mentioned and I came via a link in the article.
You guys are amazing musicians I hope I can play like you guys in the future
Amazing information thank you for sharing,
This is wonderful! This seems to be the only version of the 1935 quartet available to listen to. Was it one of the recently discovered scores? It would be great to hear the whole thing.
Yes, it was one of the recently discovered scores - we are working on getting something in its entirety soon! :) Thank you for your support!
@@ergenekahng Looking forward to it!
Wow, beautiful and completely unknown chamber music by Florence Price, very rich harmonies. Thank you so very much for sharing!
Thank you so much, Liane! :)
Thank you for posting this. What a revelation.

Right, I hate it here.
Is the music for the violin-piano duos available anywhere?
