This recital invites you to experience the musical worlds of some of the greatest creative French souls: Boulanger, Bonis, De Montgeroult, Chaminade, and Debussy. The featured works offer a view of both sides of the curtain: Woman as inspiration, the muse as a source of creative energy that flows into another artist; and Woman as creator, whose works express the power of her own creative vision and leave her mark on the world.
