      We can start with Hildegard von Bingen in the Middle Ages, Francesca Caccini in the Baroque era, and Marianna Martines in the early Classical. And there are a whole bunch beginning in the early Romantic era who were considered top-tier composers while alive but quickly forgotten; Clara Schumann and Fanny Mendelssohn are only the tip of the iceberg.

    Interestingly, a lot of women composers were well-known in their times, for example Francesca Caccini, the first woman recorded to have composed an opera, and one of the earliest operas at that, which mocked the concept of chivalry, and was staged at a purpose-built venue in Medici Florence. Or Maddalena Laura Sirmen, who was a Europe-wide famous composer and virtuoso violinist. Elisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre, a French composer who reinvented chamber music and created a French version of the originally Italian sonata, who was also a favourite composer of Louis XIV. Sadly, these once famous women are not recognised in today's world, which says rather a lot for the classical music scene nowadays, I think...

    • @imacat8476
      @imacat8476 3 года назад +8

      It's easy to look at that and assume female composers got into obscurity out of bias but most composers during the respected periods went into obscurity, even ones were very famous.
      I'll give an example, Andre Campra, one of the biggest opera composers ever and yet, no one knows him or his music nowadays. Family members Domenico Scarlatti and Alessandro Scarlatti are well known but what about Pietro Scarlatti? Domenico's older brother, he has sheet available but close to no music recorded, yet he was respected in his time. What about Johann Adam Reincken? very few people know of him, yet one of the most advanced and respected composers before Bach. Composers just go into obscurity, regardless of the fame they had or the fame they didn't have, musicians and composers now will too go into obscurity in 100+ years.

    • @lilyf-g5584
      @lilyf-g5584 3 года назад +8

      Well it is true to say that Mozart was not so popular several years ago, so I agree with you in one sense. But in another, I do find it quite telling how we celebrate so many female writers, but female composers truly lack recognition in the music curriculum and concert repertoire. I agree, this is mainly because their works have been lost over the course of time, or forgotten due to the increasing sexism. But I do feel as if more could be done in the modern world to remember them, and isn’t being done. I used to comment suggestions to twoset years ago about a video on women composers, and this is the first reference to it I have seen on their channel, for an example.

      @@lilyf-g5584 I don't think you quite know just about many composers there are, I run into composers who only have one record recorded for them, despite their historical fame.
      I wouldn't blame it on sexism, if I could blame it on sexism, it'd be equally valid to say Johann Hasse has only two keyboard albums available because of sexism too, not everything results to sexism, it's just obnoxious reasoning. In a world where 98% of composers are male with only 40% having proper records, just think about the math, there is an obnoxious amount that are obscure nowadays, I find it amazing that female composers are even remembered at all due to the overwhelming amount of obscurity there is, beyond the most well known composers nowadays.

    There were many women artists and composers in the eighteenth century, but their lives were very restricted. Anna Amaria is an exception, because being a princess gives her more power.
    She composed pieces for oboe, flute, and violin, but as usual ,she was not well known, which shows the status of female composers at that time…..

      @@conservativeriot5939 "women didn't have it that bad" its hard to have a real conversation about this over text, but I'll try my best to explain my thoughts. The issues that women faced as a whole (for the most part) during those times are only issues in a privileged society that values innovation and freedom. However, compared to the past, the world is constantly becoming a more privileged place to live. Therefore, when related to the past, I consider the 18th century to be a privileged time to live (in western/european) countries. In those privileged times, women were denied their freedoms and individualities. These are two things that men would, and have, fought wars over in the past - so I would consider freedom and individuality as values that cannot be demoted to a simple "it wasn't that bad"
      Now in modern times, because our societies (for the most part) are so privileged, people have to make up problems to solve so they can feel as though they're making a difference. This has led to the 21st century feminist movement, which in all ways, is useless and even a bit harmful towards women. However, don't let this idiocy distract you from the fact that women DO face issues in society that men dont - especially from older men. It is true that women have to be more careful at night, that there are higher standards of beauty for women to meet, and its harder for women to get real recognition for their work or to be treated with respect in many environments - of course these are also only problems because we live in a privileged society.
      Sometimes because the left pushes their agenda so violently, I worry some conservatives might overcorrect that behavior and fail to acknowledge that there ARE issues that need to be tackled - just not in the way that the left wants to tackle them.
      I hope that this made at least a little sense.

    I did a bunch of research on women composers for my undergrad theses, and I'm always happy to spread the word. I find that the most famous ones (i.e. Clara Schumann and Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel) are actually not *that* great, though I am partial to Hensel's Easter Sonata. Some other recs:
    Louise Farrenc - all of it, but especially her symphony No. 3
    Emilie Mayer - once again, lots of great music, but especially her symphonies 4 and 7. She has lots of violin sonatas, but I haven't heard great recordings of any of them. I've actually done archival research on her, so tbh I could go on and on, but won't.
    (just assume "all of it" for everyone from here on out, tbh)
    Rebecca Clark - Viola Sonata (she was sick of there not being real viola rep)
    Mel Bonis - it's been a long time, but I remember liking a lot of her stuff. Mostly piano, I think.
    Augusta Holmes - those Symphonic Poems
    Amy Beach - Gaelic Symphony
    if you know your medieval music, Hildegard von Bingen is really cool, but most people will probably just hear "Gregorian Chant"
    Elfrida Andree - if you like organ music, she's great, but also has some cool non-organ stuff
    Lili Boulanger - one of the most tragic losses in classical music, she composed a lot of incredible stuff before dying ~25 yo. If you want something more Romantic, check out her "Faust et Helene," but she also has some great 20th c. sounding stuff, as well as a couple great little violin pieces (genuinely little, I think Cortege comes out under 2 min). Her sister, Nadia, was also quite a competent composer, but left her biggest mark in teaching a ton of the greats of the 20th century.
    Comment more of your favorites! There's lots of genuinely great music out there no one hears, and that's a shame.

      Louise Farrenc : I love her trio for flute, cello and piano.

    Everyone check out Ginette Neveu, who beat David Oistrakh in a competition when she was 15 and he was 27. Carl Flesh taught her for free. Tragically, she and her brother died in a plane crash when she was only 30. Her recordings are on RUclips - you won't be disappointed.

    Imagine what masterpieces we'd have if Wolfgang A. Mozart's sister, Maria Anna's, compositions were "ALLOWED" to survive! It is said she was a much better musician than her brother. Sadly, once she was old enough to marry, Leopold didn't allow her to perform with them; much less COMPOSE and (heaven forbid) earn money (as a musician/at all) A woman who earned her own money was surely a... you know.

      "It is said she was a much better musician than her brother"
      Said by whom? She couldn't improvise at all and had to have Mozart compose modulating preludes for her to memorize so she could give the appearance of "improvising" at her concerts.
