ISBN M500129660. Best edition 2005 (German music publishing price). Extensive edition with short biographies and notes on the works (German/English). From A for Alexandra to Z for Zeiner: 27 contemporary female composers from Germany, England, France, Romania, Poland and other European countries, the USA and Argentina have donated a piano piece on the occasion of the 25th anniversary in 2004 of the International Working Group Women in Music. The pieces were performed at the anniversary celebration in Frankfurt and have now been collected in this unique anniversary edition. They are as varied as the personalities of the composers themselves, ranging from witty and playful to strictly disciplined, virtuoso to poetic, meditative, melodious and harmonious to shrilly aggressive. |
