In “Evolution and Persistence: Bacewicz and Her Legacy,” Bard Music West “ensured that Bacewicz’s legacy continues to burn brightly.” Founded by Bard alumnae Allegra Chapman and Laura Gaynon, the organization presents an annual festival that endeavors to make 20th-century music relatable, in part by providing adequate context about the life and work of a single composer. This year’s festival presented three programs that illuminated the work of Polish composer Grażyna Bacewicz.
