Pleased with the recent review in the Boston Music Intelligencer of our benefit concert for Ukraine (Sunflower of Peace) last Sunday at the Framingham Public Library. I performed Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel's "Juli" from DAS JAHR. classical-scene.com/2022/06/… #WomenComposers

It was really fun to play on this concert and inspiring to hear my esteemed colleagues!

I play solo piano works by Julia Perry, Montague Ring (aka Amanda Aldridge), Tania León, Dianne Goolkasian Rahbee and by myself on part of this Sunday Series concert, Rivers School Conservatory. Debussy, Chopin, and Clara Schumann to be played by others. eventbrite.com/e/free-sunday…

Thanks to Lee Hartman, one of the many interesting people I met at the recent Women, Feminists and Music Conference at Berklee sponsored by the IAWM and FT & M 15. This conference stimulated a lot of exchange of ideas and I learned a lot.

Samantha Ege is doing us all such a service with her scholarship and advocacy for music of black women composers. I see I have a lot more to learn about this important subject.

Thrilled to be playing my own composition, Variations on a Laundry Song, for piano solo, on the 7:30 pm recital on Friday in this conference. I'm also thrilled to attend presentations given by people who are coming from around the world to the conference. Exciting!

I am thrilled to be playing my composition for piano solo, Variations on a Laundry Song, this Friday night in the Faculty Recital of the 41st Annual Seminar on Contemporary Music for the Young at Rivers School Conservatory in Weston. Should be an exciting Seminar once again!

Thank you, Liz Bologna, and all the other people who worked so hard to make this festival so interesting and inspiring! I loved it!

This Saturday at the Women Composers Festival of Hartford I’m giving the world premiere my new composition for piano solo. I'm also excited to have the chance to meet so many interesting people and learn so much at the Festival! womencomposersfestivalhartfo…

I'm thrilled that pianist Eleanor Perrone has invited me to perform Bartok Rondos in her Rivers School Conservatory Faculty Recital this Sunday. Take a Spring Break, and join us for a one-hour recital followed by a reception!
