In choosing the music for the Fall/Winter term, the Music Selection Committee focused primarily on music by female composers and writers.  The major work for the term is “She Sang the Stars” by Sarah Quartel, which views the stages of womanhood through the Kaleval, a Finnish epic.  Other pieces for the term include:

  • “Ave Generosa” by Hildegard of Bingen
  • “And Still I Rise” by Maya Angelou/Rosephanye Powell
  • “Will the Circle Be Unbroken” by Cathy Winter/Betsy Rose/Marcia Taylor
  • “Let the River Run” by Carly Simon
  • “Measure Me Sky” by Elaine Hagenberg
  • “The Moon is Distant from the Sea” words by Emily Dickinson

And here is a MAP to show you where you can PARK!
