From the same team that brought you 24 Italian Songs & Arias by Women Composers, comes 24 French Songs & Arias by Women Composers! These songs are not found in the most well known and available French anthologies and many have been unavailable and hard to find before now. The collection includes selections by the familiar composers Farrenc, Grandval, Viardot and will introduce singers to the lesser known composers Marguerite Olagnier, Hortense Bonaparte, Hedwige Chrétien and many others. Get excited for these 24 newly edited and engraved selections!
Editors Randi Marrazzo and Nicole Leone – the creative team at A Modern Reveal – identified a relative lack of historical works by French women composers available for younger singers. Exposure to music by these women composers will provide a meaningful educational and musical resource for singers, educators, and audiences, and is much needed for a genre that has not been adequately explored.
24 French Songs & Arias by Women Composers is the largest anthology of vocal music by French women composers available and a relevant companion publication for 24 Italian Songs & Arias by Women Composers. Singers will want to have both of these publications.
