Settling the score: celebrating the women erased from the musical canon

Belina, A. (2018) Settling the score: celebrating the women erased from the musical canon. The Guardian Classical Music Blog

Abstract

An article for the Guardian's Classical Music Blog for International Women's Day 2018, as part of the BBC/AHRC Forgotten Women Composers project. Augusta Holmès’ compositions won awards and acclaim from admirers including Liszt and Saint-Saëns, so why is she, and so many of her female contemporaries, all but forgotten today?
