Download or read book A Guide to Piano Music by Women Composers written by Pamela Y. Dees and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2002-02-28 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed as a practical reference guide for professional pianists and piano teachers, A Guide to Piano Music by Women Composers, Volume I, is an annotated catalogue of the available piano music in print composed by 144 women born before the 20th century. The work also features biographies and extensive bibliographical information for each composer. Arranged alphabetically by composer into categories including single works, collections, and anthologies, the music is also described in terms of grade level, genre, mood, style characteristics, and technical requirements, and ranges in difficulty from late elementary to virtuoso concert repertoire.

This reference work provides an invaluable addition to the current literature.
