...Leontyne recalls it, she and her brother George-two years younger and now an Army captain-had the kind of childhood any kid might expect from oldfashioned. God-fearing and strict parents. If you disobeyed, "you got yourself whipped-with love, but you were torn up just the same." The color bar was as strong in Laurel as anywhere in the South, but the children were not aware of it at the time: "We were taught to judge peo ple as individuals, not on the pigment of their skin," says George. Today some Southerners use the Price success story...

Written at the end of Schoenberg's tutelage of Webern in 1909, the work is more approachable than his later 12-tone compositions, for it is only occasional contrapuntal and moves with a melodic continuity quite different from the strict counterpoint he adopted later. Continual variation of melodic fragments creates in each movement a concise, poignant compression, and the absence of tonality gives his chromaticism an ethereal unworldliness. Pulling free of the mundane world with several searing dissonances, Webern uses quavers, harmonics and undulating dynamics to create a mood of cerie, tortured contemplation...
