LunART presents “Winds of Change”: Launching the Eighth Season of

Celebrating Women in Music  

LunART Chamber Music Collective is thrilled to announce its 2024-25 concert season, beginning with Winds of Change, featuring flutist Iva Ugrcic, bassoonist Eleni Katz, and pianist Alyona Waldo. The ensemble will make its debut at Frank Lloyd Wright’s Hillside Theater at Taliesin on Sunday, November 10, at 2 p.m. Q&A with performers will follow.

In LunART’s signature style, audiences will experience a diverse spectrum of music by women composers, past and present. Featuring rarely-heard gems spanning the past 150 years, this program will fuse influences of African-American spirituals, Welsh folk music, and Eastern music traditions. 

Trio Op. 45 by Louise Farrenc (1804-1875), Afro-American Suite by Undine Smith Moore (1904-1989), and Sonatina for Flute and Piano by Grace Williams (1906-1977) will represent musical trailblazers of the 19th and 20th century. Sea Glass Partita for Singing Bassoonist by Lila Meretzky (b. 1998) and Nadiya for Flute and Bassoon by Reena Esmail (b. 1983) will transport this one-of-a-kind program to the 21st century.
