Description
15 songs by 15 female composers draw a panorama of the multifaceted female lied creation in the 19th century.
Women composers and their lieder long eked out a shadowy existence in music research and practice, though ever since the early 19th century, the lied had become a central female compositional genre, softening gender-related restrictions and opening up new artistic spheres of action. It is true that names such as Clara Schumann and Fanny Hensel are now far more established in the program guides. Nevertheless, there is still an abundance of forgotten female composers whose works have not been edited and, as a result, are mostly not (or cannot be) performed or even recorded.
