Description
Joanna Kacperek's new album for Rubicon is a superbly curated recital of music by women composers - all of whom achieved fame in their day but, in most cases, rapidly faded from the repertoire after their deaths. There is no logical reason for this obscurity. The music is first rate, and they enjoyed support from their great male contemporaries including such luminaries as Haydn, Hummel, Moscheles, Liszt, Franck and Grieg. Some have remained on the fringes of the repertoire - Chaminade for example, but for many listeners of this album it will be a fascinating voyage of musical discovery. This is great music, deserving to be better known, and is out there for us to access and enjoy.
