Louise Farrenc in 1835 by Luigi Rubio
19th century French pianist Louise Farrenc gained considerable fame as a performer in the 1830s. In 1842 she was appointed Professor of Piano and the Paris Conservatory but earned less than her male counterparts. As a composer, in 1849 she premiered her Nonette for the combined forces of a String Quartet and Wind Quintet which earned such high acclaim that she demanded, and won, equal pay at the Conservatory. Hear Farrenc's complete Nonette in E-flat as today's Midday Masterpiece at 2:00 pm on CapRadio Music.
