With the #MeToo Movement (2006, 2017) we have seen a welcome focus on contemporary women composers, a step in recognising the diversity in compositional output around the world. This recital program focuses on music by women who came before #MeToo, women of the late 19th and early 20th Centuries whose music has, for a long time, been discarded from the concert halls and classrooms. Living within the constraints of Victorian and Edwardian England, and the Gilded Age and pre-Civil Rights period in the USA, the women featured in this recital were able to forge their own musical voice at a time when women had little in the way of civil rights. Their musical pursuits, as well as their socio-political lives, make these women remarkable icons of history.听

This recital will showcase the different works of Medtner, his Forgotten Melodies which are essentially a collection of dance and song movements, his 鈥淪kazki鈥� (fairy tales) and the iconic Sonata-Reminiscenza.

Prokofiev composed his F minor Violin Sonata between 1938 and 1946, thus it can be described as a War Sonata like the trilogy of piano sonatas from the same period. This dramatically charged masterpiece is regarded by many as his greatest work. Szymanowski's Mythes and Stravinsky's Duo Concertant were both inspired by Ancient Greece, but the results are vastly different. Szymanowski here combines lush Impressionism and dramatic expressionism in a uniquely personal manner, while Stravinsky's masterpiece reflects the cool neo-classicism characteristic of his ballets Apollo and Orpheus.

Reunited Voices is a reimagined curation of a salon concert given by singer Jane Bathori and composer, poet, and pianist Claude Duboscq. These two French artists, one famous and the other obscure, performed together in the 1920s and 30s. Despite a lack of sound recordings, there is tantalising evidence of programs interweaving Duboscq鈥檚 music with the m茅lodies of Claude Debussy, Erik Satie and Francis Poulenc. Jane Bathori was the dedicat茅e and acclaimed first performer of many works by Debussy, Ravel, Milhaud and Satie. She championed of French Art Song composition, describing Claude Duboscq as one of the few true musical geniuses she had met in her life.
