Product-Information:
'That no woman has ever been a great composer is an accepted fact;
that she is never likely to become so, more than a probability.'
So declared an anonymous writer in 1887 in The Musical Times. Such statements may seem laughable today but still raise some interesting questions about our own attitudes towards the musical canon. What is a ‘great’ composer? Does a composer have to have written large orchestral works to qualify as great? What do we really know about the women composers of this country and the music that they have written? This recording brings together an exciting collection of songs written by women over a period of a hundred and fifty years, starting at the beginning of the nineteenth century.
