Thanks for a new name (for me)
She seems to have often sailed close to the wind, politically speaking, and received the support of Shostakovich
Sofia Gubaidulina

Her Offertorium


I like the way it starts with a quote from Bach's BWV 1079

Interesting name, Lili was a 'composer' in the folk tradition rather than trained in Classical music.

You may hear contemporary composer Melissa Foss Hyatt in Classical programmes, though her style is more "Ambient" than most composers

This week's BBC Radio 3 Composer of the Week is Florence Price (1887-1953)

Not yet in Classical World, her style is noticeably individual, based on the European conservatory tradition but infused with spiritualist influences of the southern States.

To mention another woman conductor, I'm bowled over at this time by a recording of Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla conducting the French National Orchestra in works by Purcell and Tippett
