I’m no longer here. Please find me at the other place: Prof Kate Loder @kghist.bsky.social
Moving to the other place, can’t justify being here. See my profile for handle. I’ll espy miss the female composers I follow who share their recent work. I have LOVED that and it feels such a privilege. Many thanks to them all🙏. Maybe you’ll soon be there too 🤞
Every week @RoseTeanby ‘s posts make me happy.
Professional photography became a viable career for mid 19th century women. The 1861 census shows 25 yr old Mary Ann Venables worked with her sister Sophia (19) and Letitia (15) at their studio in Folkestone, previously advertised as Miss Venables' Photographic Establishment. 1/2
Amazing to see from the new website, that the ever modest @henselpushers has, on top of everything else, written easy to play arrangements of the entirety of Fanny Hensel’s Das Jahr. They come with great teaching resources ❤️🎹
Major revamp of the Das Jahr page went live today ahead of a big announcement coming next week… henselpushers.org/das-jahr
Wonderful account of Priaulx Rainier. It’s fascinating on her rich artistic connections (Barbara Hepworth espy) and also on the visuality of her compositional practice. I haven’t always ‘got’ her music. This is so beautifully written it has moved me to try again, @OSoden 🙏
The International Alliance for Women in Music is pleased to announce the 2024 cycle for the Pauline Alderman Awards for outstanding scholarship on women in music. Works published during the calendar years 2022 and 2023 will be considered for cash prizes.
I’m finding some determined career women amongst historic women composers. In 1912 Australian musician May Brahe left her husband and 3 young children, travelling to the UK to establish herself (eventually successfully) as a composer. 2 yrs later she relocated them to London.
I’ve been looking into Theresa Beney. Like many UK women composers I’ve found, she proudly recorded herself as a ‘composer’ in the census (which shows she was living with a married man in 1901). Do you know of her @NaomiPaxton? she played for the Actresses’ Franchise League.😀
The VWF database is a great resource - particularly useful for me whilst researching British female composers. (Plus the gendered dynamics - and historical specificity - of Williams positioning himself as ‘Uncle’ to his former female students is fascinating in itself….)
The VWF database includes transcripts of over 5,000 items of annotated correspondence relating to the lives of Ralph and Ursula Willliams. The letters are fully indexed and searchable, and can all be read online. ✉️ Find them here: vaughanwilliamsfoundation.org/discover/lette…
I love this celebration of musical friendship - that of these two legendary performers as well as the composers they play. ‘Merci’ features Faure & his circle. A fab way to embrace the likes of Nadia & Lili Boulanger, Pauline Viardot & Saint-Saens ❤️

Hanni Liang’s new album is devoted to piano works from a wide range of female composers: Ethel Smyth, Errollyn Wallen, Sally Beamish, Chen Yi and Eleanor Alberga ❤️
Listen back to Hanni Liang's live appearance on @BBCRadio3 - In Tune, where she played music from her new album: VOICES, out now on @delphianrecords! Listen now: bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…
I am so enjoying this album: most of the ten female baroque composers featured here are new to me - and some are recorded here for the first time.
Album of the day: Destinées Ten female baroque composers are brought back to life in this programme of sonatas, overtures and dances devised by Sophie de Bardonnèche with gambist Lucile Boulanger 🎵 Fantastic! open.spotify.com/album/1lYB2qwN…
Irish student, Charlotte Taylor: in 1884 the first woman in the UK to receive a BA in music (and lit); and the first woman in Ireland to receive a degree.
#Onthisday 1884 The Royal University (@NUIMerrionSq) became the 1st university in Ireland to grant degrees to women. Charlotte Taylor became the 1st to receive the degree (she was also the 1st woman in the UK to receive a Bachelors in Music) @FinnClodagh
This looks great: concert in Oxford, next Tuesday Oct 29th: programme of four wonderful, C19 female composers. Performed by @lauragranerofp (piano) and Pablo Tejedor-Gutierrez (cello).
We can't wait for Tuesday evening! Music by Hélène de Montgeroult, Helene Liebmann, Emilie Mayer, and Clara Schumann. £10 / £5 tickets on the door 🎟️ @Bate_Collection @lauragranerofp
