What do composers look like? When you think about classical composers, do you only think about Beethoven, Mozart, Stravinsky? Yet the spectrum of classical composers covers a much broader range of cultures, ethnicities, ages, and genders, spanning over hundreds of years.
This video was created by the Listening to Ladies podcast series, an intriguing look at the amazing women who created some of our most cherished classical music as well as a look at the contemporary composers today that are breaking new ground in classical music.
MORE GREAT CLASSICAL MUSIC
Listening to Ladies showcases women composers through online features, a concert series, and a podcast to be released in September 2016.
