USM professor to present free ‘Women Who Risked Everything’ concert at Franco Center March 1
The Franco-American Collection at the University of Southern Maine, in collaboration with the Franco Center, will host “The Feminine Voice of Protest” at the 46 Cedar Street, Lewiston venue on Friday, March 1. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and the program starts at 6 p.m. There is no admission fee. “The Feminine Voice of Protest” is a program about women composers who founded a resistance network in 1941 Paris. “They put themselves at great peril as they were Jewish and they sought to save French music, culture, and lives. Only the music of men at that time is remembered,” said Grammy-nominated soprano Malinda Haslett, the University of Southern Maine's School of Music leader of the Voice Department.
