Women in Music would like to congratulate composer and pianist Dr Tanya Ekanayaka and all those involved in the release of this marvellous collection.
Dr Tanya Ekanayaka - by Nadine Ishaq
Tanya writes
It gives me great pleasure to share with you, news of a unique release in celebration of International Women’s Day 2022 on 8th March.
A
limited-edition 10-CD boxset titled, 3 CENTURIES OF FEMALE COMPOSERS
containing works for solo piano by some of the greatest female piano composers
through history is being released worldwide today (4th March). Many of you will
likely recognise many of the composers and some of the music in this set can be
accessed entirely free!
I’m deeply
honoured that one of the CDs, (CD 9), comprises my own compositions for solo
piano mostly composed during lockdown in 2020, and performed by me. Not
least because of the beautiful context am I touched by this inclusion, but also
because a core aspect of my creative practice as a South Asian woman
composer-pianist with a very multicultural lived musical background,
focuses on broadening the musical imprint of the piano across cultures and
‘spaces’ not traditionally associated with the pianistic canon.
The set
is being released by Naxos Records (Grand Piano) and the following Naxos
Records web-link contains full details https://www.naxos.com/catalogue/item.asp?item_code=GP897X
The release note published by Naxos Records on their official web-page dedicated to the release and full list of composers featured are as follows:
“Ranging from the 18th century to the music of our time, this collection of critically acclaimed recordings explores the significant contribution to solo piano repertoire made by a wide variety of women composers. These rare and important pieces include the works of the celebrated pianist Anne-Louise Brillon de Jouy and of Hélène de Montgeroult, whose sonatas are distinctive additions to the Classical and early Romantic periods. Maria Szymanowska’s deft dances contrast with the fearsome demands of Teresa Carreño, herself a great virtuoso. Vítězslava Kaprálová was the most important female Czech composer of the 20th century, while Agathe Backer Grøndahl was one of Norway’s most respected composer-pianists. Tanya Ekanayaka continues the lineage in her own diverse and hybrid pieces.” – NAXOS RECORDS
Composers included (in alphabetical order) –
Tekla Bądarzewska-Baranowska
Amy Beach
Anna Bon
Lili Boulanger
Anne-Louise Boyvin d'Hardancourt Brillon de Jouy

This new Routledge Handbook, which arose from the papers given at the First International Conference on Women's Work in Music, held at Bangor University in 2017, and edited by Rhiannon Mathias, is an important new collection of diverse research and practitioner reporting in this field. Routledge describe it as 'a key reference work for advanced undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers in music and gender'. It is available as an ebook as well as a hardback volume.
Approximately over 100 new works with an approximate equal representation of both men and women composers (hence 50/50 subtitle) will be broadcast during this 24 hour long event."

There's a week of marvellous music and insights coming up as Women in Music Founder Member and distinguished composer and innovator Errollyn Wallen is BBC Radio 3's composer of the week starting at 12 Noon GMT on Monday January 3rd 2022.
Here is the intro link: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0013237
In the first programme Donald Macleod chats to composer Errollyn Wallen about her heritage and musical upbringing.
Belize-born British composer Errollyn Wallen has been called a “renaissance woman of contemporary music”. She’s a remarkably versatile and prolific composer, pianist and songwriter and one of our most in-demand musical voices today. She was the first black woman to have a piece performed at the Proms. In 1998, her music opened the 2012 Paralympic games. She's even been performed in space, aboard Nasa’s STS115 mission. Wallen writes in a kaleidoscopic range of styles; her music constantly crosses and re-crosses musical boundaries and it brims over with a sense of adventure and delight. All this week, Donald Macleod gets to know Errollyn as she dials into his studio from her Scottish lighthouse where she retreats to concentrate on her work.
Today, we hear about Errollyn’s deep connection to Belize and her childhood musical memories. She was brought up in London to a soundtrack of Ella Fitzgerald and calypso. When she discovered the piano, she had to be begged not to practice. Errollyn's first ever composition was written for her sisters to sing walking to primary school, and family has since been a thread through her work.
All 5 episodes will go onto the BBC Iplayer as well.
Congratulations to Errollyn Wallen. See also ErrollynWallen.com

Laura Hamer has edited this excellent new volume looking at women in music in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. It brings together the work and voices of both academic researchers active in the field of Women in Music Studies and female music practitioners, in a volume that provides a high quality, accessible overview of women’s work in music since 1900.
The volume considers the breadth of women’s musical participation and experience across a wide range of musical genres, including the classical tradition, women in popular music, women and music technology, women in music education and women in the music industries. The book considers the gendered nature of the musical profession and discusses a wide range of musicians including Elizabeth Maconchy, Olga Neuwirth, Kaija Saariaho, Sinéad O’Connor, Billie Holiday, Delia Derbyshire, The Supremes.
As the next step in JAM’s Masterclass series, click here to submit
50-bar sketches for Organ or Brass Quintet by Tuesday 1st June.
This could be something you’re working on and/or nearly finished – it doesn’t
have to be started from scratch.
JAM is encouraging sketches written for diverse genres including
concert, church and jazz. Also, a solo trumpet or brass duet is as valid
as a piece for quintet.
3 Organ and 3 Brass sketches will be selected to be workshopped at the
JAM on the Marsh festival on 13th July with Francesca Massey
(Rochester Cathedral) and Onyx Brass, led by Professor Paul Mealor.
Then, these 6 pieces need to be finished for performance by Francesca
Massey and Onyx Brass in London this autumn.
One composer will be awarded a £500 JAM commission for premiere in March in London.

Women in Music congratulates ERROLLYN WALLEN CBE on her award of the ISM (Incorporated Society of Musicians) DISTINGUISHED MUSICIAN AWARD - one of the highest accolades in music. Errollyn is a founder member of Women in Music always making the difference! Well done Errollyn - adding another great award to your brilliant standing.
https://www.ism.org/news/errollyn-wallen-cbe-dma-2020
"Belize-born British composer, pianist and singer-songwriter, Errollyn Wallen CBE has been announced as the recipient of the 2020 ISM Distinguished Musician Award, one of the highest honours within the music industry, for services to music.
Established in 1976, the ISM Distinguished Musician Award recognises outstanding contributions to musical life in the UK. Errollyn joins such esteemed recipients as Dame Sarah Connolly, Sir David Willcocks, Sir Charles Mackerras, Sir Michael Tippett, Jacqueline du Pré OBE and Sir Charles Groves. The ISM Distinguished Musician Award is selected by the ISM Council and is always dated the year before it is awarded to correspond with the term of the ISM President.
Errollyn’s music is performed regularly in concert halls around the world, and she was the first Black woman to have a work performed at the Proms (1998). Her solo album Errollyn reached even greater heights, as it completed 186 orbits around the Earth on NASA’s STS 115 mission. Her work Jerusalem – our clouded hills, a reimagination of Hubert Parry’s setting, was commissioned for the Last Night of the Proms in 2020, and is dedicated to the Windrush generation. Her EP, Peace on Earth, recorded by The Choir of King’s College, Cambridge, was released last November.
On learning of her conferral Errollyn Wallen CBE said:
‘I am deeply honoured to receive this award from the ISM, who do so much to promote the vital importance of music for us all. These times have revealed that the making of live music has been under the direst threat and yet the need and longing for it has never been greater.’
ISM President 2020-21, Professor Chris Collins said:
‘Errollyn’s work is truly unique. Both her career and music-making transcend boundaries, and during COVID-19, Errollyn has continued to innovate, explore and challenge. In my term as ISM President, I can think of no one more worthy of receiving this award.’ "

On the anniversary of Nina Simone's death Chardine Taylor Stone writes a perceptive analysis and fresh view of her politics in The Tribune -
https://tribunemag.co.uk/2021/04/the-radical-politics-of-nina-simone?
Women in Music were very sorry to hear of the passing of one of our founder members, Jane Manning, last month. We are very grateful to the composer and WiM founder Nicola LeFanu and the Ivors' Academy for allowing us to share this lovely tribute to Jane on our blog.
Jane Manning was a soprano who put her artistry at the service of the living composer: she was a key figure in new music in Britain for nearly sixty years. Her wonderful voice and superb musicianship – perfect pitch and accurate rhythm – made her the most sought-after singer for all of us in contemporary ‘classical‘ music. She gave hundreds of concert and radio premieres, many being works specially commissioned for her, as well as championing 20th century classics: Schonberg and Webern, Dallapiccola and Messaien.
She worked with everyone – famous elderly composers or unknown young ones – and the ease with which she tackled a huge range of repertoire was amazing. Her voice was technically secure, due no doubt to her training in traditional bel canto with Husler and Rodd-Marling. She exploded the myth that singing new music could damage the voice, inspiring a new generation of young singers.
Jane travelled all over the world, touring in Australasia as well as Europe. In 1987-8 she was a Visiting Professor at the University of York. Out of that time came ‘Jane’s Minstrels’, the chamber ensemble she and her husband, the composer Anthony Payne, set up in 1988. Established in London, which was always her base, it drew in many of the gifted young players she had worked with in York.
As well as a marvellous legacy of recordings, she has left an invaluable legacy of books on 20th and 21st century vocal music, including her research into Pierrot Lunaire, of which she was a consummate performer.
Jane was very important to me and my family: she made premiere recordings of Maconchy, Lumsdaine and myself, and in 1977 created the lead in my first opera, Dawnpath; indeed, one of my very first commissions, in 1971, was to write her a solo scena, But Stars Remaining, which true to form she kept in her repertoire. I shall miss her very much, as will my composer colleagues; we owed her so much, and her passing marks the end of an era.

Check the Music Week article here - some salient points are below. It is interesting that she succeeds another woman in her main posting. Temi Andeniji is originally from Nigeria and has USA degrees in Political Science and Law and a UK Masters in Law and worked in the legal area for several years before building her career with Warner Music which she joined in a senior position in 2016.
Temi Adeniji has been appointed to the combined role of MD of Warner Music South Africa and SVP, strategy, Sub-Saharan Africa.
Adeniji will assume this position in September, reporting to Alfonso Perez-Soto EVP Eastern Europe, Middle East, India and Africa. In addition, as SVP of special projects, she’ll work closely with Simon Robson, President international recorded music, on a number of international projects.
Adeniji will succeed Tracy Fraser as MD of Warner Music South Africa. Fraser has led the affiliate since its founding in 2013, and developed a successful and diverse roster of local artists, increasing the company’s market share, revenue and profits. She will work alongside Adeniji over the next few months to support her transition.
Temi Adeniji said: “The world is waking up to the rich and diverse talent present in myriad thriving music scenes across the continent. As this increasingly interconnected digital world continues to remove barriers to music discovery, there is no doubt that in the years ahead we will continue to see even more global superstars from Africa.
“Africa stands on the precipice of a significant growth story, and I’m excited to play an important part in guiding our Company’s strategy and operations in this region. I have worked closely with our South African team over the past few years, so the opportunity to help steer the next stage of their journey is an honor and privilege.”

Pirate radio stations in the UK began as 'offshore' broadcasters, the most famous being Radio Caroline. They provided an alternative to mainstream radio and started the careers of many who went on to become legendary radio DJs. The rebel pirate spirit that began at sea later came inland, and this talks features women who were central to the Pirate radio scene of the 1980s and 90s.

Women in Music is delighted to share news of the launch of the F-List CIC. This wonderful resource will make a difference for female musicians. Things are changing and there is a lot to celebrate. Huge credit to Vick Bain who got this project off the ground.
Here is the F-List's press release today:
Anoushka Shankar announced as inaugural president of The F-List CIC, a not-for-profit that supports female musicians
Genre-defying and award-winning artist Anoushka Shankar is announced as the inaugural president of The F-List CIC. The-not-for-profit enterprise launches Monday 23rd November to support the work of The F-List website https://thef-list.uk/ the first directory of its kind to feature female musicians, songwriters, composers, and bands, all in one place. As the music industry anticipates re-opening next year, there has never been a better opportunity for festival promoters and commissioners to find or hire female talent and ensure we create a more equal industry after covid19.
Anoushka Shankar says:
“I am delighted to represent this fantastically talented and committed community, who are passionate about creating opportunities for the great wealth of female talent that exists in the UK. The F-List is the first initiative of its kind to give female artists and musicians a platform where they can be discovered. Its breath-taking thoroughness and scope nullifies any excuses from people in the music industry who blame a lack of representation and diversity by saying there’s a dearth of women to hire. But it’s also a supportive network that can transform the music industry into a place that better represents, and reflects, the richness and diversity in British society.”
The F-List is a comprehensive resource that contains the latest information on over 4,500 musicians, 1,000 bands and 300 labels and publishers with women on their rosters, across all musical genres. Any musician, songwriter or composer can join if they are female*. UK record labels and publishers can also apply if they have female artists on their rosters. The F-List, originally published in February this year as a simple Google spreadsheet, has been upgraded to a fully functional and searchable website that makes it even easier for promoters and commissioners to find female talent.
The F-List is the brainchild of equality and diversity campaigner Vick Bain. While researching the careers of women in the music industry for her PhD, she uncovered these startling statistics.
14% of UK writers and composers signed to publishers and just 20% of artists signed to record labels are female.
These low figures are reflected in most UK festivals and events. In 2017, 84% of festival acts were entirely male, 10.5% were mixed bands and only 5.5% were solo/all-female (BBC, 2017). When festival bookers responded with: ‘we don’t know where to find female acts’, Bain saw a solution. She began compiling The F-List – an all-female roster of musicians and bands that she had discovered through her research.
But The F-List is more than a directory. After Bain published the list, she received a groundswell of support for her venture from female artists in the industry. Since then, it’s grown into a not-for-profit Community Interest Company (CIC) that’s committed to challenging a number of barriers that prevent women from progressing and thriving in the music industry – from the gender pay gap to sexism and harassment, and the motherhood penalty.
The F-List CIC is developing a range of initiatives to dismantle these structural inequalities and ensure that a 50/50 gender split becomes the norm across every festival and event in the UK. British Asian musician Bishi, Music Week rising star Alex Ampofo and Keychange founder Jess Partridge are among the 13 directors on The F-List’s CIC board. The F-List CIC is also proud to announce partnerships with Independent Venue Week and Scottish Women Inventing Music.
Sybil Bell Founder of Independent Venue Weeks says:
“The F-List encompasses everything we need to move towards making a lack of female representation a thing of the past. Independent Venue Week is so proud to be a partner of this brilliant initiative. We look forward to working closely with Vick, and her team, as we develop programs to ensure greater gender balance and more equitable representation across the industry.”
Hilary Brooks the Chair of SWiM comments:
“Scottish Women Inventing Music (SWIM) is proud to be a partner of game-changing initiative The F-List. We are very excited about working together on what will surely be a fundamental tool for those in the music industries. The F-List will be a directory which will prove invaluable on a macrocosmic scale when it comes to providing opportunity and growth.”
Further partnerships and projects will be revealed in the coming weeks.
Vick Bain adds:
“I wanted to create a nationwide network that represents the interests of all female artists and musicians in the UK, and spearheads projects and initiatives that match their ambition. I am thrilled to be working with so many talented and experienced women, who are committed to creating the lasting changes that are so desperately needed in the music industry. With their collective passion and energy, I believe we can empower more female artists to successfully start and sustain their careers in music.”
*The F-List is proud to be trans and gender minority inclusive
