Tune in here on Friday, August 11th at 3:00PM (ET) for an outstanding concert featuring works written by women composers

We are coming to you live from the Ravinia Festival, North America's oldest music festival,  presenting a large variety of different events throughout the summer.

Presented as part of Ravinia’s Breaking Barriers Festival, the performance carries a season-long focus on highlighting women composers writing for small classical ensembles. Among other works, RSMI’s Piano & Strings fellows perform the Double Quartet by Ellen Taaffe Zwilich, the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize in Music.

The Program for Piano & Strings concentrates on interpretation and small-group collaboration through the practice and performance of classical sonata and chamber repertoire. Up to 35 violinists, violists, cellists, and pianists—and often a pre-existing chamber group or two—gather for five weeks of immersive and intensive rehearsals and coachings with a rotating roster of some of the world’s finest teaching artists.
