Price:
$17.99
During her illustrious career as an opera singer Leontyne Price was highly sought
after as an interpreter of grand opera's classic soprano roles. She was born in Laurel, Mississipi, in 1927, when it was unheard of for a black singer to pursue a career in opera.
Through Ms. Weatherford's lyric text and Raul Colón's striking artwork we learn the story of how Leontyne Price first came to music, and how her talent combined with years of hard work and perseverance eventually brought her to
the stages of the world's greatest opera houses.
