Led by Canadian conductor Janna Sailor, this morning’s program highlights the talent, diversity and contribution of women to classical music, with works by Toronto Afro-descendant Rachel McFarlane, Indian-American Reema Esmail and American pioneer Amy Beach. The voices of guest soloists Suzanne Taffot, a soprano of Cameroonian origin, and Anuja Panditrao, an Indian Hindustani singer, will be used to magnify the work of Reema Esmail. As you may have guessed, this program takes place on March 8, International Women’s Rights Day, and is presented this Sunday, March 2, at Salle Pierre-Mercure, 3:30pm. To find out more, Alain Brunet interviewed Allison Migeon, General Manager and co-founder of OBIORA.
