Liaison Ensemble celebrates women composers of the Baroque with their programLa Querelle des Femmes
The French phrase querelle des femmes, "the woman question", refers to a debate started in 1500 by the philosopher Agrippa about the virtue of women. He argued that the oppression of women by men was due not to natural reasons, but socially constructed ones. Liaison celebrates the voices of admired female composers of the time, whose music rose to prominence despite adversity. Join them for an afternoon of song and wine at The Musical Offering.
Tickets available online on Eventbrite. Remaining tickets will be sold on a first come, first served basis at the door.
