- Talented and resolutely independent, Marie d'Agoult (1805-1876) was one of the most remarkable women of her time. Abandoning her privileged position in society, she eloped with her great love, the pianist and composer Franz Liszt, and later won fame as a writer under the penname Daniel Stern. She published fiction, articles on literature, music, art, and politics, and a history of the revolution of 1848, and she was an advocate for democracy, the eradication of poverty, and the emancipation of women. Courted by many important figures of her day, she married a nobleman and became a member of the court of Charles X. Her passion for music eventually brought her into contact with Liszt, with whom she moved to Italy and had three children. After their idealistic romance degenerated into disenchantment, d'Agoult returned to Paris, began her writing career, and established a salon for artists, reformers, and freethinkers. Bolster explains how George Sand became d'Agoult's friend and then betrayed her by giving Balzac information about her affair with Liszt, which he used in his novel Béatrix.

- Description
- This collection of analytical essays on music by women composers from Hildegard of Bingen to the twenty-first century, presents detailed studies of compositions written since 1960 by Ursula Mamlok, Norma Beecroft, Joan Tower, Sofia Gubaidulina, Chen Yi, Kaija Saariaho, Libby Larsen, and Elisabeth Lutyens. Each chapter opens with a brief biographical sketch of the composer written by the editors, followed by an analysis of a single representative composition linking analytical observations with broader considerations of music history, gender, culture, or hermeneutics. The essays are grouped thematically into three sections, the first focused on pitch design, the second on musical gesture, and the third on music and text.

- Description
- De auteur onderzoekt verschillende aspecten van Nederlandse muziek uit de 18e en 19e eeuw in relatie tot gender en klasse. Ze beschrijft de deelname van vrouwen aan 'Collegia Musica', 'Felix Meritis' en de 'Maatschappij tot Bevordering der Toonkunst'. Door een analyse van de composities van Josina van Boetzelaer (1733-1797), Gertrude van den Bergh (1793-1840), Hermina Amersfoordt-Dijk (1821-1892) toont ze aan hoe moeilijk vrouwen zich konden vestigen als componist of uitvoerend musicus.
