WOMEN AT THE PIANO 1848-1970

AH 115 Women at the Piano 1848 - 1970
POP UP Class (Not in catalog)

This class offers glimpses into the creativity of three women pianists in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries: Clara Schumann (1819–1896), Teresa Carreño (1853–1917), and Amy Beach (1867–1944). It focuses on how the piano afforded these figures a means of artistic agency, especially in terms of loss and renewal, during their international careers. The presentation features live illustrations by UCI music students Shivangi Simona Cancean, Kyle Le, and Minami Suda.

This presentation is part of the International Conference Women at the Piano 1848–1970 that will be held March 16th – 19th, 2023 at UCI.
