About this Event
Experience an unforgettable concert hosted by Boulanger Initiative in cooperation with the ACF DC to celebrate the artistry and contributions of Austrian women composers.
This Women’s History Month, immerse yourself in an evening of inspiring music and purpose. The program will feature breathtaking performances of chamber works by pioneering Austrian women composers throughout history, including Marianna Martines, Maria Theresia von Paradis, Alma Mahler, Mathilde Kralik von Meyerswalden, and more, brought to life by Melissa Wimbish (soprano), Laura Colgate (violin), and Jessica McKee (piano). This evening honors their enduring legacy and raises awareness for Boulanger Initiative’s mission to advance gender equity in the music industry. Join us in harmonizing history with progress and enjoy a night of culture, inspiration, and impact. Together, we can amplify the voices of women in music and build a more equitable future.
