Constance Luzzati & Fiona Mac Gown - Concert, Presented by the Ingres Bourdelle Museum in partnership with the Auvillar en musique association
This concert offers a journey through the music of French composers whose works remain too little known, such as Lili Boulanger, Marguerite Canal, Amy Beach, and Augusta Holmes.
The program draws on the work of the Cité des Compositrices (City of Women Composers). Founded in 2020 by cellist Héloïse Luzzati, this organization's mission is to raise awareness of the lives and works of women composers among all audiences and to restore them to their rightful place in music history, through a comprehensive approach.
In five years, the Cité des Compositrices has established itself as a leading advocate for gender equality in the music industry. Its work is based on extensive research conducted using the collections of major libraries and archives: the Bibliothèque Nationale de France (National Library of France), the Library of Congress, the British Library, and the Berlin City Library (Straatsbibliotek Berlin). Each year, nearly a thousand scores are digitized, some still in manuscript form, others in their first edition.
€10 - €8 - Free
