The Mystic and the Muse Celebrating 600 Years of Women in Music
 Ensemble Galilei Marcia Diehl, Recorders - Nancy Karpeles, Percussion - Sue Richards, Celtic Harp - Erin Shrader, Guitar & Fiddle - Carolyn Anderson Surrick, Viols - Sarah Weiner, Oboe
Queens and subjects, wives and lovers, mothers and daughters, patrons and mystics, this music is the legacy. Their passions, strength and courage have given rise to these melodies. From an eleventh century monastery in Rupertsburg to the court of Queen Elizabeth, from the letters of a Swedish immigrant to the ballads of the Appalachian mountains, they loved and cried, laughed and danced. Music is an expression of humanity, composition as an expression of the soul.
