Picture of the Day – July 14, 2012

Here’s a photo from the 2010 Festival’s Local Composers Concert. Festival Director Daniel Morel introduces Carrie Koffman and Sheri Brown before they perform an arrangement of Tanya Anisimova‘s Caravan.

Originally composed for two cellos, Koffman and Brown performed a version for two alto saxophones. You can hear the composer and cellist Ole Akahoshi perform the original here.

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.
