Product Description -
The String Quartet in E flat major 1834 by Fanny Hensel, nACe Mendelssohn, is one of the most important works by a female composer written in the nineteenth century. Composed at a turning point in her life as Hensel was not only grappling with her own creative voice but also coming to terms with her identity as a married woman, and the role her family expected of her, the quartet is significant in showing a woman composing in a genre that was then almost exclusively the domain of male artists. Benedict Taylor's illuminating book situates itself within developing scholarly discourse on the music of women composers, going beyond apologetics aEUR" or condemnation of those who hindered their development aEUR" to examine the strength and qualities of the music and how it responded to the most progressive works of the period.
