Women Composers, Women Poets

Nevertheless, She Sang

“For most of history, Anonymous was a woman.”  – Virginia Woolf

IMPORTANT TIME CHANGE 

Saturday’s concert at Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church has been changed to 5pm.

Despite a lack of opportunity, female composers were not, in fact, silent… Hear the remarkable blossoming of art and expression, when women take up the verse of women and write the songs they want to write. With Christine Lyons, Caroline R. Olsen, Laura Strickling, and Laura Ward, piano.
