Celebrating Women Composers: Music HerStory
Carolyn Enger at the First Universalist Parish of Chester
March 30, 2023
7PM
World-renowned pianist Carolyn Enger will bring music of women composers to the First Universalist Parish of Chester (211 North St.) on Thursday, March 30 at 7PM.

Celebrating Women Composers: Music HerStory exalts contributions that women have made to the world of classical music. Compositions spanning 1805-1982, including works by Fanny Mendelssohn, Clara Schumann, Caroline Shaw and others will be featured. Pianist Carolyn Enger is dedicated to performing compositions by under-represented female composers. She strives to inspire audiences to appreciate the importance of diverse creators, underscoring the universality of music.

Enger has performed in venues as nationally familiar as Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center, and as far away as the National Gallery of Oslo and the Felicja Blumenthal Center in Tel Aviv. Her 2013 Naxos recording of music by Ned Rorem, Piano Album I, was selected as one of The New York Times' "Best in Classical Recordings."

Proceeds from this performance of Music HerStory will benefit the Chester Andover Family Center, and the First Universalist Parish of Chester. A $10 donation per person is suggested.
