This year’s Forum Musicum presents the works and lives of women composers at the times when women’s social position curbed their access to artistic professions. Exceptional talent, the patronage of their fathers, husbands or the church hierarchy as well as associations with royal or aristocratic courts enabled only very few women composers to be active in this profession.
