A 2019-20 study found that only 8% of works performed by leading American orchestras were composed by women. She Scores provides an important platform, promoting the creative talents of composers too often overlooked due to gender disparities.
Launched in 2021 to raise awareness of inequities in composition and performance, She Scores has become an anticipated annual tradition. The series aims to cultivate a more equitable regional arts community by celebrating exceptional female and nonbinary musical voices.
Experience compelling works that broaden artistic perspectives. These composers offer inventive brilliance and unique storytelling perspectives deserving of recognition alongside contemporary music's most celebrated names.
Admission is free to this extraordinary evening of artistry, made possible by generous support from Cuyahoga Arts and Culture, the Gund Foundation, the Bascom Little Fund, Ohio Arts Council, and the Music Performance Trust Fund.
Discover fresh voices and be part of the movement to champion diverse musical voices. Expand your horizons at She Scores from May 30th through June 2nd.
