This program brings together works by Miriam Hyde, Brenda Gifford, Louise Farrenc, Amy Beach, Jennifer Hankin, Keyna Wilkins, and Ros Bandt—a rich tapestry of music spanning centuries, continents, and styles. From romantic lyricism to contemporary experimentation, each composer offers a distinct perspective, revealing the expressive depth and versatility of these instruments.
