One of the
concerts that I perform consists of improvised com-positions whose
nature and subject material reflects experiences of women. For
example, one composition is entitled Housework
and reflects the frustration, fatigue & relentlessness
of this daily task; another composition is entitled Women
in War and describes the courage & and valor of women against
a background of horror; another composition entitled Swampland
Serenade is inspired by the world of nature to which I
feel deeply connected & which provides me with spiritual solace
& musical ideas; & Hildegard is dedicated
to the first known women composer in the Western world & draws
on the musical style prevalent in her day.
