Meet GRAMMY award-winning composer Joan Tower, who dropped by the KMFA Studios in anticipation of the celebration of her music at the Round Top Institute. A Day Honoring Women in The Arts was Saturday, June 23; all three concerts that day featured her music, for a total of seven of her pieces. Ms. Tower talks about her early days as a composer, what she has learned in her 79+ years, and gives advice to young musicians.
