From the 1500s through the 1900s there were a surprising number of
women composing classical music. Many were successful, finding
venues for both publishing and performing their music; others found
the social barriers for women impossible to overcome. This book
provides access to these composers, both well known and obscure.
Arranged chronologically by era, each section is divided into
countries. For each female composer within a country, a brief
biographical sketch is provided, as well as a description of her
body of work. This text also includes an extensive opera timeline
of works by female composers.
