Shedding light on the greatness of women in music (and a couple of men!), including texts in English by prominent women poets. Join us to hear some of our many discoveries, featuring settings of Emily Dickinson’s poems by Lori Laitman (USA, b.1955), the mysterious charm of songs by Liza Lehmann (UK, 1862-1818) and the sly humor of Madeleine Dring (UK, 1923-77).
