Equinox Chamber Players @ Central

St. Louis, MO . . . The St. Louis Public Library is proud to present Freeing the Caged Bird, a concert program featuring a live performance by The Equinox Chamber Players woodwind quintet. The event takes place at Central Library, 1301 Olive Street, on Saturday, April 14 at 1 p.m. The program is FREE and open to the public. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis.

The Equinox Chamber Players, composer Dr. Barbara Harbach, and scholar Dr. Kathleen Nigro celebrate the extraordinary lives and literary contributions of Maya Angelou, Kate Chopin, Sara Teasdale, and Emily Hahn—four of St. Louis’ most accomplished writers. At the heart of the event is the performance of Dr. Harbach’s Freeing the Caged Bird, a woodwind quintet commissioned by The Equinox Chamber Players. Dr. Harbach discusses the intricacies of her music, and as the music unfolds, Dr. Nigro delivers a PowerPoint presentation highlighting the historical influences of these outstanding literary artists.
