That talk by @fpricefest was so good I wound up listening to it again -- back-to-back, the whole thing -- the latter to get at the rich details and information. Highly recommended talk.

Read this thread below it's spot on! So often programming is about practical choices over pure artistic ones. We can so easily programme women and in so do open up more choices of potential suitable repertoire in the process. #womencomposers #illuminatewomensmusic https://t.co/0ELdpbomW6
