Adoration

A gem of American music, reimagined for strings. Adoration by Florence Price is one of the most beloved short works in the American classical canon — and this string orchestra arrangement by Travis Freshner brings its tender, hymn-like beauty to life with warmth and expressive depth.

Florence Price (1887–1953) was a trailblazing composer and the first African American woman to have a symphony performed by a major American orchestra. Adoration reflects her gift for melody and her deep roots in the African American spiritual tradition. This arrangement preserves the soul of the original while making it accessible and impactful for string orchestras of all levels.
