PROGRAM

In the month of International Women’s Day, we present a concert to celebrate women musicians. Programmed by Calgary’s prominent flutists, the afternoon concert will feature Canadian and American female composers who have shaped and enriched the contemporary music landscape: Jean Coultard, Catherine McMichael, Rachel Laurin, Colleen Athparia, and Amanda Harberg. The program will also feature the premiere of Calgary composer Liezel Kruger and their piece The Trees of Kortillion, commissioned by Lucie Jones.
