About This Item
London: Faber, 2023. Book. Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. A fine new copy. The lives, loves, adventures and trailblazing musical careers of four extraordinary women: Ethel Smyth (b.1858), Rebecca Clarke (b.1886), Dorothy Howell (b.1898), and Doreen Carwithen (b.1922). In their time, these women were celebrities and composed some of the century's most popular music and pioneered creative careers; but sadly today they survive as muses and footnotes to male contemporaries like Elgar, Vaughan Williams and Britten. 472pp..
