MIsshapen Pearl On Demand Nov. 19-Dec. 3
The CCP proudly presents music of the 17th and 18th centuries, with music of three historically excluded women composers. TICKET LINK HERE
Baroque, which comes from the Portuguese word for misshapen pearl, barroco, was first used as a derogatory term by 19th century critics who found Baroque art to be old fashioned.
Today, we joyfully celebrate the music of the baroque, and ask the question: where did women composers fit into the Baroque era? Were women composers the actual Misshapen Pearls?
