Harmony Beyond Music: Taking Liberties
Musical women in France during the 19th century took advantage of unrivalled freedom of education and opportunity. Louise Farrenc, Lili Boulanger and Mel Bonis all became important figures in Parisian musical life, even while struggling to overcome prejudice and personal tragedy. Juxtaposed with them is a lyrical and light-filled sonata from one of France’s most talented young composers of our own time.
