“MUSICAL MOTHERS”

Another great program of music by Women Composers
Works by Dora Pejacevic, Undine Smith Moore, Amy Beach, and Heleen Verleur

May 26-28, 2023

Join us for another celebration of incredible women composers to belatedly celebrate Mother’s Day.   We have been proud to perform numerous neglected women composers over the years and help give them their voice back into the classical repertoire.  This year, we hope to feature a wonderfully Romantic Piano Trio by early 20th century Croatian composer Dora Pejacevic.  We will also perform a very fun work by Dutch contemporary composer Heleen Verleur that includes the blues, tango, and other popular idioms.  We will also highlight composer Amy Beach who composed many works for an important female violin virtuoso of the early 20th century, Maud Powell, who in turn made some fantastic transcriptions and arrangements of music for violin and piano.  Finally, we will bring back a wonderful piece by African-American composer Undine Smith Moore based on Afro-American Spirituals.  You will not want to miss these incredible works that need to be heard!
