Sarah Hagen returns to the Denman Hall February 22 at 2pm with her program entitled Wonder Women that delves into the remarkable stories and piano music of forgotten female composers from the classical repertoire. The recital will highlight piano works by 18th and 19th century composers, including Clara Schumann, Cécile Chaminade, Agathe Backer Grøndahl, and others. Included will be stunningly gorgeous music by Marianna Martines, who lived in the same circles as Haydn and Mozart, and often joined Mozart in piano duets at the musical soirées she and her sister held in their Viennese home.
