Legendary Ladies – Heroic Women
ASTER Women’s Chamber Choir presented a collaborative concert with guest artists from Legendary Ladies who presented costumed portrayals of historic women including the Colorado poet Katherine Lee Bates, cowgirl Prairie Rose Henderson, pioneer Helga Estby who walked across North America in 1896; deaf psychic Helen Gilman who told fortunes in Boulder; and leader of the prohibitionist movement Carrie Nation. Musical highlights of the evening include Sandi Peaslee’s setting of Soujourner Truth’s famous text “And Ain’t I a Woman” and a fifteen minute choral tribute to Sacagewea by Broomfield composer and photographer Pete Simpson. Mr. Simpson’s photographs will be displayed in the lobby of the Auditorium prior to each performance.
