CARR-PETROVA DUO
Sunday, April 2, 2023 – 4:00 PM
Lund Hall at First Congregation Church of Ridgefield
(103 Main Street, Ridgefield, CT)
Internationally acclaimed violist Molly Carr and renowned pianist Anna Petrova perform a powerful program comprised entirely of works by female composers. “HERS” vibrantly celebrates the vision, strength, resilience, and vital contributions of the female sex throughout history. Through music and storytelling, the Carr-Petrova Duo will lead its audience through the inspirations, battles, and incredible accomplishments of eight fearless women – from the 12th century’s Hildegard Von Bingen to today’s Beyoncé – inviting the audience to share in the centuries of heartbreak, struggles, and triumphs that comprise the female experience.
