Description

This evening brings together music and literature to celebrate the artistic achievements of outstanding women. Marilies Guschlbauer (cello) and Julia Rinderle (piano) perform works by female composers such as Clara Schumann, a pioneer of Romanticism, Fanny Hensel, who composed despite societal obstacles, as well as Amy Beach, Rita Strohl, and contemporary composer Flora Geißelbrecht. Wolf Bachofner accompanies the performance by reading texts that highlight the voices of strong women.

The event creates an artistic approach to a central societal issue: it sends a message in support of the recognition of women and against violence toward women. As part of the "16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence" initiative and in cooperation with "Orange the World," the program combines art with an important cause.
