Cathy McGill curates Women's Voices 2009

Look up the word diva in the dictionary--the modern definition is fairly straight-forward: celebrated female singer. This spartan description only scratches the surface of the word. The powerful gathering of talent known as Women's Voices--a collection of New Mexico's most celebrated women in music is so grand no walls can contain it.  Women's Voices, curated by Ms. Cathryn McGill presents world-class divas more akin to the original, Latin definition of the word meaning, goddess. “Women's Voices is a rare event,” says Maud Beenhouwer, Interim Executive Director of New Mexico Jazz Workshop. “It's one of the few times we get to see so many great singers in one place on the same night.” Beenhouwer states that audiences can expect an eclectic weekend of music that runs the gamut of jazz, bebop, swing, rock-n-roll, Latin and soulful R&B. “There's something for everyone at Women's Voices,” says Beenhouwer. “But don't wait too long to get your tickets--Women's Voices is one of our most anticipated events and is bound to sell out!” Find out more about Women's Voices on our website.
