Our next concert with Rose McLachlan - Pianist will be on Sat November 8th at 3.00pmRose says, “I try to think about what the music world will look like in 50 years — and if we don’t focus on female composers who are alive now, will the same thing happen to them, and they’ll only get acknowledged once they’re dead?”
“It’s not about tipping the balance, it’s about wanting equality”
She will also be playing a selection of the 22 Nocturnes by women composers : see below:
Rose McLachlan, prize-winning pianist and one of the pioneering forces behind 22 Nocturnes: an anthology of pieces published by EVC Music in 2023, focused on celebrating new works by women composers. In collaboration with London Piano Festival, the set of 22 new works was premiered in its entirety on the 5th October at King’s Place.
22 Nocturnes for Chopin by Women Composers, published by EVC Music in 2023, is a creative project supporting the pitch by Rose McLachlan. Each piece in the anthology is inspired by a nocturne by Chopin; almost every Chopin piano work has a dedication to a woman, and this anthology of piano pieces written by women composers completes the circle. Combined with the EVC’s idea to publish previously unpublished women composers, the anthology became a “landmark publication, one which deserves to make a huge mark in our musical lives, and which I believe will make a seminal impact in the piano world.” (pianodao.com)
