The Agony of She : solo double bass / Caerwen Martin.
Library shelf no. 787.5/MAR 1 [Available for loan]
Work Overview
This piece is about gender discrimination in pain recognition in medical treatments which can have catastrophic outcomes for women. This piece is angry and is written in the hard-core contemporary style. It is a confronting and visceral piece, and I advise providing a trigger warning to your audience before the performance.
