artists: Steinaa trioen

Denmark’s own Steinaa Trio gathered some of the country’s best musicians – all female – in 2024 to celebrate and perform chamber music written by female composers, many of whom have existed in the shadows over time, their legacies unseen. Over three days, they presented works by: Clara Schumann, Fanny Mendelssohn, Madeleine Dring, Louise Farrenc, Kaija Saariaho, Amy Beach, Amanda Röntgen-Maier, Thea Musgrave, Lili Boulanger, Lera Auerbach, Claude Arrieu, Frida Kern & Grażyna Bacewicz.
