Join us for the launch of "A Century of Women and the Carillon: A Timeline of ‘Firsts’ since 1950," presented by University Carillonist Tiffany Ng, alumna Dr. Michelle Lam, and 2022–23 UROP researcher Sarah Penrose!
Free and open to the public.
According to UNESCO, the carillon turned 500 years old in 2015. Yet women have only been fully involved in carillon culture for the past century. The open-access website CarillonWomen.org presents the discoveries of an international research team led by Associate Professor of Music Tiffany Ng on women’s contributions to carillon culture since the fifteenth century.
In this presentation, Prof. Ng, co-editor Dr. Michelle Lam, and 2022–23 UROP researcher Sarah Penrose launch their final addition to the website, an inspiring community-nominated global timeline of the first women to break glass ceilings in their regions and carillon fields from 1950 to the present day.
Location: Michigan League, Room D
This event is part of the 2024 University of Michigan Organ Conference / Great Lakes Regional Carillon Meeting: https://wp.me/p7VjVq-qh
