Celebrating Women’s History with Duo FAE

Join us at Brushwood Center for a celebration of Women’s History Month with an afternoon of chamber music written and performed by women!

Duo FAE performs music filled with “virtuosity and maturity” (Hill and Hollow Music.) for audiences with works by Florence Price, Clara Schumann, Amy Beach, Lili Boulanger, and Dame Ethel Smyth.

In 2012, Duo F.A.E. was founded by violinist Charlene Kluegel and pianist Katherine Petersen who had met at the Aspen Music Festival several years prior. The duo takes its name from the motto of virtuoso violinist Joseph Joachim and composer Johannes Brahms “Frei Aber Einsam” meaning “Free but Alone.” (shown on the left) The duo brought new meaning to this motto, doing all of their rehearsing and concertizing while living in Canada and the U.S. respectively at the inception of the ensemble. The duo seeks to present concerts that feature chamber music in its rawest form by joining two voices into one.

Come usher in spring and celebrate the artistry of these marvelous composers and performers this March!
