In its thirteenth season, MusicIC presents "Centering Women's Perspectives," which features myriad contemporary female composers, incorporating perspectives from a collection of Western and non-Western musical traditions. The program aims to re-examine musical and literary hierarchies by presenting string quartets of oral-based storytelling songs from Mali, Indian Ragas, and melodies based on Iranian poetry. Composers represented on this concert include Caroline Shaw, Hawa Kassè Mady Diabatè, Jessie Montgomery, Aftab Darvishi, Reena Esmail, and MusicIC's own Tricia Park.
