Sunday, March 21, at 9pm on 99.5 All Classical
Pianist Virigina Eskin (shown) takes us on a musical tour through history, from ancient times to today, to unveil some hidden treasures from women composers. In this episode, the women of the early 19th Century began to find ways to be independent artists. All of the women on this program are powerhouse composers, and for some, being female was not a social hindrance. But for Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel, the lack of family support, particularly from her father and her famous brother Felix, prevented her from reaching her full potential.
