Our Take

Step aside Beethoven, there's a new crew in town and they're bringing some much-needed estrogen to the classical music scene. VARIOUS ARTISTS' "Compositrices: New Light On French Romantic Women Composers" is a refreshing and long-overdue tribute to the oft-overlooked female composers of the 19th century.

From the hauntingly beautiful piano pieces of Louise Farrenc to the bold and experimental compositions of Cécile Chaminade, this album offers a diverse and captivating look at the talents of these pioneering women. The lush orchestral arrangements and intricate melodies transport the listener to a time when women were fighting for recognition in a male-dominated industry.

Each track on "Compositrices" is a true gem, showcasing the incredible range and depth of these composers. The stunning violin sonatas of Mel Bonis will have you reaching for a tissue, while the lively and playful works of Augusta Holmès will leave you tapping your toes and craving a glass of champagne.

Overall, "Compositrices" is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates groundbreaking music and wants to discover the hidden gems of French Romanticism. So grab a croissant, pour yourself a glass of Bordeaux, and let these talented women serenade you into musical bliss. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
