Almost forgotten for many decades, the African American composer Florence B. Price got a great boost when a large cache of her compositions was found in 2009. The exploration of these works by performers is ongoing and often yields interesting new items, as in this release in the Catalyst Quartet's "Uncovered" series, presenting forgotten works by Black composers. Four of the works here are world premieres, and none is at all common. Despite many obstacles in her compositional career, Price was quite prolific, and it seems to have been in the chamber music field that she worked out new ideas in merging the European legacy with African American materials. The Piano Quintet in A minor is typical of the larger works here in using Dvořák's basic language as a frame for the introduction of the latter. There are several examples of the ragtime-like "Juba" third movement that Price favored, and these arguably work better than those she wrote in the orchestral medium. The biggest revelations here are the two groups of settings of folk materials, the Negro Folksongs in Counterpoint for string quartet and the Five Folksongs in Counterpoint for string quartet, which treat tunes of various backgrounds (check out the setting of Drink to Me Only with Thine Eyes). These are much more than academic exercises, weaving the folk songs into complex textures that evoke Ives a bit. The album contains two apparently unfinished works; these may be minor entries in the Price catalog, but the gorgeous melody of the Andante moderato second movement of the String Quartet in G major makes them worth one's time. The Catalyst Quartet approaches its task with both enthusiasm and skill, and the group shows that the ongoing reevaluation of Price's work is far from complete.
