Lincoln College: Talk and Piano Performance by Dr Samantha Ege
Tuesday 29 October 2024, 5pm
The Oakeshott Room, Lincoln College Oxford
All welcome!
Please join us for a lecture and piano performance by Dr Samantha Ege.
Combining a mix of lecture and piano performance, Samantha Ege brings the story of the South Side impresarios to life. She delves into the ways that Chicago's early 20th-century Race women (i.e., Black women intellectuals and creatives committed to the entwined tasks of racial uplift and gender equality) operated out of their South Side base and shaped a new vision for classical music that transformed the city and beyond. There will be a drinks reception in the Langford from 5-5:30pm followed by the talk and performance in the Oakeshott Room from 5:30-6:30pm. To book a ticket, please click here.
