A Night Of Women Composers: From Clara Schumann To Meredith Monk

Friday, September 27, 2019 at 7:30 p.m.
National Sawdust 

National Sawdust begins the season with a spotlight on seven female composers who have and are bringing their distinctive voices to the music of our time: Clara Schumann, Emma O’Halloran, Mary Lou Williams, Missy Mazzoli, Meredith Monk, Paola Prestini, and this year’s Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Ellen Reid. On opening night, YPC, led by Francisco J. Núñez, will reprise Ellen Reid’s So Much on My Soul. This piece is a YPC commission that includes a text inspired by personal stories from several YPC chorus members.

September has been an incredibly exciting month so far, with a whirlwind of high-profile performances across the city. First stop was the Brooklyn Navy Yard, where YPC accompanied a parade of models displaying Michael Kors designs during New York Fashion Week. The following evening, YPC performed at the Save the Children Centennial Gala honoring Tommy Hilfiger and Camila Cabello. Then, at the Samsung Gives Charity Gala, YPC stopped the show with its own set, and later, in performances with Wyclef Jean and DJ Irie.
