Sunday, May 31 - Mount Vernon Music Anniversary Concert.
Sunday, May 31, 2026 at 3pm. Mount Vernon Music will present their anniversary concert.
Fanny Mendelssohn and her brother Felix both composed brilliant music, but due to expectations of the time only his was published. What if social conventions had been different, and it was commonplace for our favorite masterworks, like Mozart’s incredible Clarinet Quintet, to share the program with music written by women?
