Elizabeth C. D. Brown, guitar

Seattle’s own Elizabeth C. D. Brown will give a live-streamed solo program titled “Music of Light and Life.” After opening with music by Heitor Villa-Lobos, the performance will feature works by 3 living composers: Thomas Flippin, Kevin Callahan, and Olga Amelkina-Vera. This inspiring music celebrates themes like new life, growing up, light overcoming darkness and the triumph of the human spirit in a special tribute to Heath Care workers. Some of the composers will make virtual appearances to briefly discuss their music during the live-stream.

Elizabeth Brown is head of the Guitar and Lute program at Pacific Lutheran University and is active throughout the Pacific Northwest as a solo and ensemble performer. Known for her musically passionate performances, she has given solo recitals and performed concertos throughout North America. Ms. Brown's first solo recording, La Folía de España: Dances for Guitar, features works for baroque, 19th-century and modern guitars. "Her personal involvement with the music is very apparent: this woman enjoys her music and her audience can't help but be swept along with her" – Guitar Soundings (Seattle).

The livestream will take place at 7pm Pacific.
