Follow a thread out of the labyrinth. Or, maybe, straight into its center. Hopefully every Sunday.
Tonight’s path is dedicated to great women of music, whether they composed, sang, played or performed in any way. Once again moving freely and –rather- spectacularly between moods, genres and periods of time, from medieval hymns to experimental proto electronic music. Sometimes closer, sometimes loosely, but eventually focusing on the female identity of the musical industry which, often enough, tends to be overlooked.
