麻豆社

In the run up to International Women鈥檚 Day, the 麻豆社 Symphony Orchestra and 麻豆社 Singers are celebrating women composers and performers all week during the afternoons. Today鈥檚 programme includes works by Libby Larsen, Deborah Pritchard, Aftab Darvishi, Cecilia McDowall and Victoria Borisova-Ollas. It includes a project from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers & Authors to encourage compositions around the theme of refugees and freedom. Alexander Vedernikov brings the afternoon to a rousing close with the wonderfully powerful 4th Symphony of Shostakovich, which is full of thrusting energy and excitement.
