Description
The Old Boatman is a two-page piano piece Florence Price composed for the benefit of developing piano students. Upon hearing it, Dana Paul Perna found it very reminiscent of Edvard Grieg, specifically his Lyric Pieces, and 19 Norwegian Folk Tunes, op. 66. With that in mind, he proceeded to score her work in a literal transcription for string orchestra in 2002. Upon the advice of the renowned conductor, John McLaughlin Williams, Perna extended his initial transcription of Price's piece, completing the more comprehensive arrangement, as published here for the first time.
