ABOUT US:

Women of the World is an international vocal ensemble that came together three years ago to bring musicians from all over the world onto a common platform.

Led by four women vocalists, the group was founded by Ayumi Ueda (Japan) who was joined by Ali Rapetti (USA), Giorgia Renosto (Italy) and Annette Philip (India). Together with their eclectic band, Women of the World has performed in over a dozen of the world’s languages. From Bulgarian, Cuban, Latino, Brazilian, Italian, African, Indian and Japanese music to spontaneous improvisation and a-cappella interludes, the unique music which stems forth from this mixture of artistry has created for a sound which is all its own- borderless, spirited, and carrying the undeniable message of unity.

The group has also supported various causes including fundraisers for victims of natural disasters in Haiti, Pakistan, and most recently, Japan.

Following their recent New York debut at the Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall, NY, Women of the World is now gearing up for an international tour next year. (www.womenoftheworldmusic.c­om)
