Program

A program of music by Hildegard of Bingen presented by Ensemble Musica Humana.

Told in Hildegard von Bingen’s own words, this imaginative program simultaneously explores the soundscape in which the celebrated Abbess lived, and the theology that she embraced. Dramatic readings from her “Scivias” with improvised instrumental accompaniment are interspersed with her own compositions and anonymous medieval dances as a means of interpreting her visions musically.

The Women Composers Festival of Hartford promotes the music of contemporary and historical women composers.

The WCFH embraces diversity of race, ethnicity, and ability, and empowers artists from underrepresented groups who identify as women, including transgender and gender-fluid individuals, women of color, indigenous groups, LGBTQ, and the differently abled. We warmly invite and welcome all attendees. Our annual Festival is accessible for all those with mobility, visual, and/or hearing impairments.

When you make a tax-deductible donation to the Women Composers Festival of Hartford, your money directly supports the creation, promotion, and performance of women’s music.
