Concert to Celebrate Women
Fri, Nov 15 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Westport Center for the Arts’ Brown Bag Concert Series continues on Nov. 15 with a free performance by the Lyric Arts Trio, focusing on outstanding women composers and poets. The concert will feature works by American composers Amy Beach, Elinor Remick Warren, and Beverly McLarry, as well as settings of poems by Maya Angelou and Emily Dickinson. The Trio will also perform a new work commissioned by them by Florida composer Alex Burtzos, which is set to the poetry of Chrissy Kolaya.
The Lyric Arts Trio (soprano Sarah Tannehill Anderson, clarinetist Elena Lence Talley, and pianist Dan Velicer) has been a vibrant presence on the chamber music scene for over 20 years. The trio has performed throughout the Kansas City metro area and the Midwest, as well as in New York, Canada, and Florida.
The trio is known for its unique programs of solos, duos, and trios and has been a stalwart champion of the works of living and lesser-known composers. The Trio has commissioned or premiered over 20 new compositions.
