This project will lead me to a new stage in my career. My audience and students will benefit by my knowledge and experience from the project. I expect the CD and performances to be evaluated in print and on the Internet by audience and critics.
I advocated and conveyed the music of the great historic woman composer. All knowledge and experiences that I gained from the project were shared with. My video recording viewers are increasing, and after each live concert, I received many comments about how great this piece is. Also, there was a great deal of empathy regarding the barriers in her music career.
