Description
A chamber music theatre work produced by The Core Ensemble, text by Kim Hines.
"Ain't I a Woman honors four African-American women of remarkable achievement and invincible character. The text draws attention to specific choices and decisions in their lives demonstrating how each overcame personal or political challenges and was able to achieve astonishing goals living in an American society often unfriendly to social tolerance and acceptance. The musical score that unifies the pieces is drawn from the heartfelt spirituals and blues of the Deep South, the urban vitality of the Jazz Age, as well as contemporary concert music by African-American composers."
