Women's Philharmonic Advocacy

Women’s Philharmonic Advocacy is a non-profit organization founded in 2008 in order to:

• Recognize the achievement of The Women’s Philharmonic (1980-2004) over their 24 years of activity.
• Build on this work by advocating for the performance of women composers by orchestras and ensembles.
• Address the place of women composers (historic and contemporary) in today’s repertoire of orchestras and ensembles in the US and internationally.
• Present information that highlights the shortage of programming of works by women; the heritage of TWP emphasizes that this should and can be corrected.
