Details
Judith Lynn Stillman’s “Women Trailblazers in Music” takes us on a
journey with tunes and tales by — and about — pioneering women composers who were
all but expunged from history. Commissioned by FirstWorks and Artists & Activists
Productions, the movie features stories rarely heard, and music not often played. The
“quarantine” film was produced remotely by Stillman in 2021 during the COVID-19
pandemic and features twenty-five celebrated performers. The premiere will take place
at Rhode Island College’s Sapinsley Hall in the Nazarian Center for the Performing Arts
on Thursday, November 4th at 7:30 PM. A live concert showcasing additional music
composed by women and featuring performers from the film will follow the screening.
