Barbara Strozzi | by Bernardo Strozzi (1600s)
CapRadio Classical and Jazz is celebrating women in music all month long by featuring a different classical composer every weekday. Today's spotlight is on multiple women of the baroque era. You’ll hear music from each of them throughout the day:
- Barbara Strozzi (Italian; 1619-1677). Composer and Singer.
- Camilla de Rossi (Italian; fl 1670-1710). Composer of oratorios.
- Élisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre (French; 1665-1729). Harpsichordist and composer.
- Francesca Caccini (Italian; 1587-1640). Composer, singer, lutenist, poet, and music teacher.
- Rosa Giacinta Badalla (Italian; c 1660-c 1710). Composer and Benedictine nun.
Today is also the birthday of Johann Sebastian Bach and you’ll hear his music throughout the day, including the Kyrie and Gloria from his Mass in b-minor for today’s Midday Masterpiece.
