Lieder europäischer Komponistinnen – Songs by European Women Composers

Urtext herausgegeben von Jan Willem Nelleke & Voices of Women · Singstimme und Klavier

Diese Edition entstand im Rahmen des europäischen Erasmus+-Projekts Voices of Women, das das Liedschaffen von Komponistinnen in Forschung und künstlerischer Praxis neu beleuchtet. Die ausgewählten Werke eröffnen einen vielfältigen Klangraum zwischen Intimität, Ausdruckskraft und poetischer Tiefe.

Die Kompositionen umfassen rund 100 Jahre Kunstliedgeschichte (ca. 1850–1950) und zeigen die individuelle Verbindung von Wort und Ton, die jede Komponistin auf ihre eigene Weise geprägt hat. Die Lieder eignen sich gleichermaßen für Studium, Unterricht und Konzert und laden dazu ein, vokale Traditionen neu zu hören und zu interpretieren.

Enthaltene Komponistinnen:

Agathe Backer Grøndahl · Henriëtte Bosmans · Ingeborg von Bronsart · Augusta Holmès · Borghild Holmsen · Johanna Müller-Hermann · Poldowski · Ethel Smyth
