Women composers of classical music : 369 biographies from 1550 into the 20th century

"Many women composers were successful, finding venues for both publishing and performing their music; others found the social barriers for women impossible to overcome. Arranged chronologically by era, each section is divided into countries. For each female composer within a country, a brief biographical sketch is provided, as well as a description of her body of work."--Provided by publisher
