Join us for an evening of fierce women in music and painting. Just as Baroque painter Artemisia Gentileschi chose to tell the story of the brave Judith, period composers Elisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre, Barbara Strozzi, and Hildegard von Bingen also drew inspiration from women throughout history, immortalizing their stories in music. Jacquet de la Guerre’s Judith Cantata depicts the heroine’s story and will be featured in An Evening of Fierce Women, along with movements from her Sonata for Violin and Harpsichord in D, and a mesmerizing chant from von Bingen.

Performed by Bach Aria Soloists: Founder/Artistic Director Elizabeth Suh Lane, Soprano Sarah Tannehill Anderson, Harpsichord Elisa Williams Bickers and featuring commentary by the Senior Curator of European Arts Dr. Aimee Marcereau DeGalan, this evening will unite poignant music and painting and celebrate the drama and splendor of the Baroque.
