Women Composers of the 19th Century: Arranged for Guitar Quartet

Women Composers of the 19th Century: Arranged for Guitar Quartet is a collection of music never before heard on guitar. It represents a major addition to a growing revival of women’s music, which had long been considered inferior to men’s. Compositions by women have been seldom represented in the classical guitar literature, and the romantic style of the middle to late 19th century is rarely heard from guitar quartets. Women Composers of the 19th Century: Arranged for Guitar Quartet brings together high levels of research and scholarship with over 40 minutes of grand, exciting music by four different composers, representing a varied palate of 19th century sounds and ideas. Contains: Forward by Anthony Glise, and scores and parts for all pieces.
