We celebrate Women in Music with compositions and performances by women. Brahms’s mountain of a piano concerto was caught up in his relationship with Clara and Robert Schumann. Clara was one of the great pianists of her time, and she performed this piece along with many others during her career. Amy Zanrosso, one of our favourite and regular soloists, returns to the Kootenays to perform Brahms’ masterwork. We welcome Kamloops soprano Rachel Casponi to sing Barber’s evocative Knoxville, depicting life in the city’s soft summer. Jennifer Higdon’s Dance Card is an exuberant work which expresses her appreciation for the work required by string players to create beautiful performances. We honour the life of BC composer Jocelyn Morlock with her ode to the natural world.
