Capilano Universe: Great Women Composers in Western Music

Join us for the Capilano Universe Lecture series!

As far back as the Middle Ages, women have been writing and publishing their own compositions. Often left out of the traditional western canon, their works are now being rediscovered and performed by major classical music ensembles. 

This lecture is an introduction to some of these women who, though famous in their own day, had been forgotten by history. 

Registration is required. For more information, call 604-984-0286, ext. 8144. 

This meeting will be held on Zoom. What you’ll need to attend: a computer with microphone (or headphones) and webcam, or your smartphone/tablet.
