ROCO will present an evening of music and thoughtful dialogue about the role women play and the importance of diverse female voices in the arts and culture industry. The evening will consist of a panel discussion about the current state and future of the representation of women in the arts, plus selections from ROCO’s In Concert program, titled Queen of Hearts, featuring works all composed by women. The orchestra will be led by conductor Mei-Ann Chen, and includes the world premiere of a commission from Heather Schmidt. Panelists include: Lauren Anderson of Houston Ballet, Christine West of Houston First, Fleurette Fernando of UH’s Masters in Arts Leadership program, Pia Agrawal of The Momentary at Crystal Bridges Museum, Mei-Ann Chen, conductor, and Heather Schmidt, composer. The full Queen of Hearts concert (without the panel) will be performed on Saturday, November 17 at 5pm at St. John the Divine.
