Centering Women’s Perspectives will feature myriad contemporary female composers, incorporating perspectives from a collection of Western and non-Western musical traditions. The program aims to re-examine musical and literary hierarchies by presenting string quartets of oral- based storytelling songs from Mali, Indian Ragas, and melodies based on Iranian poetry. This concert is presented by MusicIC, Iowa City’s own summer chamber music festival, as part of the Iowa City UNESCO City of Literature.
