PROJECTS:

• Exploration of women composers. In the spring of 2006, Bragin who was then Music Artist-in-Residence at the Huntington Museum fo Art, organized and produced a concert, "Women for All Seasons", consisting of chamber music by women composers (Rebecca Clarke, Joan Tower, Clara Schumann). This was held in conjunction with an exhibit of works by women artists at the Museum of Art, and was a collaboration with the Montclaire String Quartet. She maintains this interest, as she collaborates with other musicians in works by more women composers such as Tania Leon, Florence Price, Margaret Bonds, Undine Smith Moore, Josephine Lang, and Pauline Viardot.
   
• "Chemists Making Music", a project sponsored by the American Chemical Society's Division of the History of Chemistry and the Chemical Heritage Foundation and organized by Vicki Bragin and science historian, Jeff Seeman. A concert was held in San Francisco during the 232nd National Meeting of the American Chemical Society. Dr. Elaine Bearer, biochemist-composer from Brown University, composed a work especially for Bragin to perform for this occasion. In addition, Bragin invited the Caltech Chamber Music Ensemble to perform works by Alexander Borodin, a chemist, and by Sir Edward Elgar, an amateur chemist. Although Caltech has a worldwide reputation for its science, math, and engineering programs, less known is that it has had an outstanding and thriving chamber music program for decades, then led by cellist Delores Bing. The students who performed at this concert were chemistry majors.
   
• August 30, 2005 at 5:30 pm: Special solo concert of works by Beethoven, Borodin, and Chopin. A brief talk by Bragin on Borodin as chemist, composer, and a staunch supporter of academic freedom, especially for Russian women, preceded the performance of Borodin's works. 230th American Chemical Society Conference at the Washington, DC Convention Center.
