DESCRIPTION:Voices of Womanhood\n\nI Have Been Her Kind is an exploration o
	f the outcast female voice across\ncenturies — women who could not — and w
	ould not — conform to society’s\nexpectations. Shamed\, shunned and punish
	ed\, they were isolated\, driven to\nmadness\, and misunderstood.\n\nNamed
	 after Anne Sexton’s iconic poem Her Kind\, this programme brings together
	\nSexton’s own recorded voice with music by Handel\, Purcell and Strozzi\,
	 alongside\nworks by Kaija Saariaho and Karmit Fadael\, woven together thr
	ough\nelectro-acoustic interludes and transitions by Tatiana Rosa.\n\nThe 
	powerful yet misunderstood women of Baroque opera — Alcina\, Armide and Me
	dea\n— find echoes in twentieth- and twenty-first-century explorations of 
	madness\,\npsychological disintegration and womanhood. Through music\, poe
	try and\nsoundscape\, Her Kind traces a dramatic journey across centuries\
	, revealing\nvoices that refused to be silenced.\n\nSoprano Elisabeth Heth
	erington\, acclaimed for her artistry in both Baroque and\ncontemporary re
	pertoire\, joins Ensemble Postscript in a programme that moves\nseamlessly
	 between Baroque and contemporary sound worlds.\n\nElisabeth Hetherington 
	— soprano\nEnsemble Postscript:\nRachael Beesley — violin\nCynthia Freivog
	el — violin\nIteke Wijbenga — viola\nOctavie Dostaler-Lalonde — cello and 
	co-director\nMargaret Urquhart — double bass\nArtem Belogurov — harpsichor
	d and co-director
