Classroom Posters & Booklets

The Women Composers Alphabet Poster pays homage to some of the great women composers often left out of music history and performance. You can help correct the narrative of music history by hanging this poster in a classroom, living room, or music studio. This poster size is 24" width x 18" height.

The companion booklet details facts about each composer on Boulanger Initiative's Women Composers Alphabet Poster, with a page dedicated to each composer and a QR code to a playlist listening link featuring music by the composers. Perfect for all ages, inside and outside of the classroom.

Our consulting services can be used to find repertoire, program individual concerts, program entire seasons, get in contact with composers, and be used to find resources other than repertoire.

Simone Baron is a polyglot pianist, accordionist, improviser and composer whose work “ego-less, genre agnostic and without expectations” (JazzTimes) engages curiously and charismatically with a broad spectrum of idioms.

Megan DiGeorgio is a composer, performer, educator, and arts administrator in the Washington, D.C. area. In all of her work, she believes in community over competition, and she believes that correcting the gender imbalance in music and composition starts with inspiring young students and musicians with the knowledge that they can be composers and creators themselves. She is the Director of Education Advancement for Boulanger Initiative, serves on the leadership team of District New Music Coalition, and freelances as a composer, violist, vocalist, and private teacher.
