The performance will feature Molly Gebrian playing the viola and Danny Holt on the piano. Both are renowned professional musicians who have performed widely.
The performance, Trailblazers: Celebrating Female Composers, will highlight the music of women who defied the social expectations of their time against the backdrop of a world war and a global pandemic.
