KORG USA showed support for the Alliance for Women Film Composerse (AWFC); a community of female-led professionals in multi-media, by sponsoring a recent event panel featuring diverse composers discussing gender matters in the music and film industries. The panel preceded the Lincoln Center “Women Warriors, Voices of Change” Concert with the “Orchestra Moderne NYC”; an 80-miunute live-action performance featuring the music of established Hollywood female film composers, including Starr Paroli, current president of the AWFC.

“KORG and I have a very special relationship spanning many years.  I personally want to thank Joe Castronovo and his team for their continued support of my artistic endeavors and for their enthusiastic and generous support of the AWFC and the work we are doing,” shared Starr Paroli, composer and current president of the Alliance for Women Film Composers.

Following the exclusive panel, KORG hosted an intimate reception for those in attendance at Pless Hall, New York University in Manhattan, New York. Attendees networked with panel leaders and musicians alike, discussing better advocacy for female composers.
