For the flutist wishing to perform music composed by women, this annotated catalog will come as a most welcome addition to the numerous flute bibliographies now available. Boenke has spent four years gleaning all possible sources to come up with several hundred listings of composers from three centuries and 40 different countries. When the information is available, she lists publisher and the OCLC system record number after the routinely listed title and instrumentation. In addition to the alphabetical listing are indexes for instrumentation, title, publisher, and composer. A short list of sources is heavy on LC and NUC catalogs as well as the several standard sources on women in music. This volume could serve as an example for instrument-specific music bibliographies. For flutists it is priceless. Choice This book, an alphabetical listing of flute music by women composers, provides ready access to flute music that is published or available in manuscript form. Unlike any previous handbook of the flute repertoire, it is devoted entirely to the works of women, the vast majority of whom are not mentioned in the standard catalogs of flute literature. A carefully compiled study, the volume examines the quantity, variety, and scope of women's work in this genre and includes composers from more than forty countries, spanning three centuries. It contains works for solo flute, duets, flute and piano, concertos, woodwind quintets, other chamber ensembles, or any work that employs soloistic use of the flute. It also provides biographical information on the composers, publishers, availability of works, and annotations on the works themselves. All compositions are indexed by title and by instrumentation, and publishers and contemporary composers are listed with current addresses, to facilitate the ordering of music. The first published volume of its kind, this unusual work will draw attention to valuable and unknown repertoire in this genre and provide the opportunity for women's works to be heard more often. It will be useful in all university music libraries and conservatories, and it will be a valuable resource for professional flutists, teachers of flute, and researcher in women's studies.

The solos in this book are all based on melodies composed by women. They are especially well suited to performance on the flute, and they provide excellent material for developing skills in rapid tonguing, extended breath-control, and phrasing. Three of the world's most famous melodies are here: Mildred Hill's Happy Birthday (originally Good Morning to You), Euphemia Allens' Chopsticks (originally the Celebrated Chop Waltz), and Effie Corckett's Rock-a-Bye, Baby. Less well known delights include Faustina Hodges' Because I'm Twenty-Five and Florence Percy's Fly Away, as well as Amanda Aldridge's Dance of the Warriors and the list goes on and on. A separate recorder edition is available.

Designed as a practical reference guide for professional pianists and piano teachers, A Guide to Piano Music by Women Composers, Volume I, is an annotated catalogue of the available piano music in print composed by 144 women born before the 20th century. The work also features biographies and extensive bibliographical information for each composer. Arranged alphabetically by composer into categories including single works, collections, and anthologies, the music is also described in terms of grade level, genre, mood, style characteristics, and technical requirements, and ranges in difficulty from late elementary to virtuoso concert repertoire. Far too many teachers, students, professional musicians, and audiences are unaware of the contributions made by women in music, and of the beauty and merit of their specific compositions. This reference work provides an invaluable addition to the current literature.

Provides convenient access to a body of solo, recital, concerto, and chamber music literature that will enrich the repertoire of the violinist. Includes a biographies section which briefly summarizes the life and work of women composers from the Baroque to 20th century American and International. The music section identifies and describes compositions in 12 genre categories. The discography organizes recorded works by composer and by title. Reference and Research Book News This bibliography enhances the repertoire of the violinist by providing convenient access to a new solo recital, concerto, and chamber music literature: the music of women composers. While other source books exist in which some of this information could be found, it is often incomplete or in such abundance that selection is difficult. This well-organized bibliography will not only simplify the process of obtaining such information, but it represents a valuable contribution to the relatively new study of the musical compositions of women. Violin Music by Women Composers is divided into three main sections: Biographies, Music, and Discography. Preceding these is a general alphabetical index to all the composers included in the work, with reference to information on them contained in the three main sections following. The Biographies section is divided among five eras beginning with Baroque and concluding with Twentieth Century International. The second section of the book, Music, is organized in twelve genre categories in which composers are entered alphabetically along with the titles of their compositions. Wherever possible, information is provided on date of composition, publisher and/or source, and duration; often with additional comments included. Library sources are given for manuscripts and for published music that is out of print; otherwise, a current publisher is listed. The Discography section organizes recorded works alphabetically by composer, then alphabetically by title. This section also includes a directory of recording companies. The volume concludes with a bibliography and references. Violin Music by Women Composers is a unique, up-to-date, and thoughtfully organized resource. Exploring its contents will certainly inform and add to the repertoire of violinists and their presenters.

The composers included in volume 3 of "Women Composers: Music through the Ages" were born between 1700 and 1799. Included here with examples of their keyboard music, some of the composers are also represented in volumes 4 and 5, which contain vocal, choral, chamber, orchestral, and operatic music. Unlike most of the composers in volumes 1 and 2, who belonged to religious orders or noble families, the women born in the 18th century were of secular background and were more visible as musicians. Musical families produced generations of composers, both men and women. The three volumes in this anthology devoted to the 18th century include mothers, daughters, wives, and sisters-in-law of other composers and musicians. Many of these women performed and composed in a wide variety of forms and genres, including sonatas, lessons, sets of variations, fantasias, and short and descriptive pieces. Volume 3 includes forty-three works by twenty-two composers from nine countries: England, France, Italy, Germany, Poland, Austria, the Netherlands, Bohemia, and Scotland. Maria Teresa Agnesi, a performer and composer, wrote instrumental and operatic music, while the soprano Elisabetta de Gambarini is represented by one of her charming harpsichord sonatas. Anna Bon, a singer, harpsichordist, and composer, left only three collections of works: a set of sonatas for flute and continuo, a set of divertimenti for two flutes and continuo, and a set of six sonatas for harpsichord. The singer-pianist-composer Juliane Reichardt, a member of an illustrious Czech-German musical family, wrote two piano sonatas and many songs. The songs of her daughter, Louise, another singer-composer, appear in volume 4. MadameKrumpholtz, a celebrated harpist and composer, was the mother of Fanny Krumpholtz Pittar, also a harpist. Krumpholtz's connection to the Dussek family of women composers was through Jan Dussek, with whom she frequently performed. He was the husband of composer Sophia Dussek (later Moralt) and the father of composers Veronika Cianchettini and Olivia Dussek Bulkley. Josepha Barbara von Auernhammer was one of Mozart's favorite pupils; he dedicated several works to her. Mozart, Haydn, and Salieri wrote concertos for the blind composer Maria Theresia von Paradis, a talented pianist and singer, whose "Fantasia for Piano" is included here. This volume contains music by six English performer-composers. Anne Valentine, the composer of the rondo "Monny Musk," was also a music merchant. Cecilia Maria Barthelemon, the daughter of Maria Barthelemon (see volume 4), wrote the descriptive piece "The Capture of the Cape of Good Hope for the Piano Forte or Harpsichord, Concluding With a Song & Chorus." Jane Mary Guest Miles, whose music is in both volumes 3 and 5, wrote expressive and virtuosic music. Elizabeth Weichsell Billington composed music in her youth, before pursuing a long and highly successful performing career. Mlle Benaut, whose first name remains unknown, wrote her few extant compositions before she was in her teens. The Dutch pianist and composer Gertrude van den Bergh studied piano with Ferdinand Ries. She published her first piano composition at age nine and continued to compose, perform, and conduct throughout her lifetime. She supported herself by teaching members of the Dutch royal family. Helene Riese Liebmann, another piano pupil of Ferdinand Ries, was recognized as a virtuosoat the age of ten. Her compositions for voice, piano, and chamber groups combine elements of Classical and early Romantic styles. Maria Szymanowska, whose music combines 18th-century genres with 19th-century language and texture, was one of the first women to achieve economic independence through teaching, public performance, and publication. Her marriage to a wealthy landowner dissolved because of his reluctance to allow her to pursue a professional musical career. She associated with a diverse group of intellectuals, writers, and composers in Warsaw and St. Petersburg, where she held a position as court pianist. All music titles and composer names appear on the music in this volume as they did in the original publication. We thank Eve R. Meyer for her editorial assistance in the preparation of volumes 3, 4, and 5. Special thanks to Sam Dennison for his expertise as indexer of this series.
