A celebration of Women's History Month with a grand scale orchestra will highlight the contributions to music by woman including Baroque era French composer Elisabeth de la Guerre, who was the first woman to compose a full length opera, music by Polish artist Grazyna Bacewicz, a performance by the globally lauded Tanya Bannister, as well as works by contemporary American artist Kathryn Bostic. Ms. Bostic, who is known for her work for film, TV and theatre will appear with the Riverside Symphonia in a triple role, as composer, pianist and vocalist. As a special element to the program, many of the compositions will receive their East Coast premier during the concert, so please make sure you don't miss this very special event!
