Repertoire Type: Works by Women Composers
There is a pressing need for greater representation in the classical music canon — on the stage, in music schools, and in our practice rooms. CelloBello’s intention with all of our repertoire databases is to highlight groups whose music is often underrepresented in our field. We hope that compiling this information and making it free and accessible to the world will help us take steps towards expanding and rethinking the classical music canon. We hope this resource inspires you in the practice room, in your teaching, and in your artistic programming. Our dream would be to have such rich representation in our field that such a database would not be needed, but until that time comes we are proud to have this resource available. We hope it sparks curiosity and inspires your musical growth.
Thank you to cellist Wendy Velasco for sharing her initial work with CelloBello, and to all of her contributors that built the initial repertoire list. Another thank you to Jing Li and the rest of the CelloBello staff for the hundreds of hours they’ve poured into further research.
The information contained in the catalog is displayed using the criteria of composers’ name, country of birth, and personal website link (where available), as well as the works’ title, date of composition, duration, and instrumentation. Although this catalog does not grant specific information about purchasing scores for all of the pieces listed, it facilitates the search of scores and provides links of contact to the composers, where applicable.
Please direct any feedback, particularly information on missing works or compositional misinformation, directly to francesca@cellobello.org.
