Neave Trio: "1.8 Percent" - Music by Women Composers

The Neave Trio is presented by the Longy School of Music of Bard College in Edward M. Pickman Concert Hall in a program entitled 1.8 Percent. The title of the program refers to the frequency with which American orchestras program the works of female composers. In response to this trend and in honor of Women’s History Month, the Neave Trio’s performance will feature works by four distinguished women composers, spanning the Romantic era through the modern day, including Rebecca Clarke’s Piano Trio; Amy Beach’s Piano Trio in A minor, Op. 150; Cecile Chaminade’s Piano Trio No. 1, Op. 11; and Jennifer Higdon’s Piano Trio.
