In celebration of Women’s Month, GetClassical and Ekstasis Duo present Women’s Voices, a program of music that was written by female composers. Positioned in loose chronological order, the program starts with the mid-19th century works by Louise Farrenc and Clara Schumann which are followed by the contemporary classical scores by Judith Taafe Zwilich and Lera Auerbach. A jazzy arrangement for piano and cello by Kaufman as an hommage to Nina Simone tops the night.

A recently formed Ekstasis Duo of musicians, Eliran Avny, piano, and Natasha Farny, cello combine their passion and dexterity for this exciting music night at the Revelation Gallery at St. John’s in the Village Church in New York City. Graduates of the Julliard School of Music, Avni and Farny artistic partnership brings the lesser-known music and the masterpieces to the wider public. The program at the GetClassical recital on March 17, 2020 successfully underscores this mission.
