Westminster Presbyterian
Notes for Women: Paving the Way
Sunday, March 8 | 3:00 p.m.
In honor of the 100th anniversary of women's suffrage and the "Votes for Women" movement, this program will feature works by and inspired by women from the 17th and 18th centuries.
Violinist Maria Romero has created a program that includes chamber music by Francesca Caccini, Barbara Strozzi, Elizabeth Jacquet de la Guerre, and others.
Undeterred by conventions and gender limitations, these composers made waves during their time and paved the way for future generations to fight for the right not only to vote but also to express themselves and create in ways which we hold dear to this day.
Free admission, with donations accepted at the door to support our musicians and early music in Nashville.
