DISCOVER more about the women composers we honor this evening.

You may have noticed that our tables, rather than being numbered, are represented by different female composers. Some are based right here in Washington; some have written works performed by the City Choir of Washington, Suzanne Karpov this evening, and other area choral groups this season or in seasons to come; all are tremendously talented. Learn more about them here.
