Who we are
Elles – women composers is an organisation with a 360° radius of activity, entirely devoted to countering today’s dramatic absence of women in concert music programmes. The organisation’s projects of production, mediation and diffusion are entirely built on the foundation stone of research, digging up forgotten manuscripts and studying scores.
It seems as if practically every day musicians are finding some undeservedly forgotten or ignored composition that has never been published, or recorded, or performed.
These discoveries are the starting point for all of our activities; our goal is to return them to the light and share them with the greatest possible number of people.
