Webinar: Woman Composer Sunday: Honoring Trailblazers and Inspiring New Generations

On Monday, February 12th, 6 pm Central (7 pm Eastern), National AGO Task Force for Gender Equity will offer a webinar covering repertoire and resources related to Woman Composer Sunday (10 March). The task force selected three women composers: Elizabeth Stirling (1819-1895), introduced in the January issue of TAO; Grace Wiersma, daughter of Dr. Roberta Bitgood, organist, composer, and first female president of the AGO (1975-1981); and contemporary composer Martha Sobaje. Look for works by all three in the January-March issues of TAO, for use on Woman Composer Sunday.
