Today I'm listening to her Piano Concerto In One Movement.

It's the anniversary of Joseph Haydn's birthday!

Joseph Haydn is so metal it took 145 years for his skull to come to rest. Meanwhile his tomb had a placeholder skull. Now it has two skulls.

Chesky Concerto for Electric Guitar Rocks!

https://youtube.com/shorts/1bR32GuaC8w?feature=share

David Chesky is a favorite contemporary composer of mine. His works are meant to connect to popular culture. His Concerto for Electric Guitar and Orchestra is the best in class. Period. Hands down. No one else has better married the concerto form and electric guitar... yet!

Zaderatsky "The Plant" is Metal!

Zaderatsky lived through the tremulous times in Russia and barely survived. He had a habit of supporting the eventual losers in various power struggles, and also of not keeping his opinions to himself. We're lucky that this work survives and that he survived long enough to create it.

Pejacevic String Quartet is Metal!

#InternationalWomensDay Special Episode!

She was born in a castle. She volunteered for war as nurse. She read over 500 books on all topics. Dora Pejacevic was a modern woman who broke all stereotypes in both society and in #ClassicalMusic. She is #metal in the metaphorical sense as well as in the sense that her music is dissonant and peppered with shredding virtuosity.

Four photos of Polish #ClassicalMusic composer Grażyna Bacewicz (1909-1969).
She was and remains both one of the most important Polish and women composers in history. She was so courageous she held underground concerts in Warsaw during WWII.
A violin virtuoso, she wrote seven concertos for the instrument.

These Three Women Classical Music Composers Are Metal!

With compositions created by women making up only five percent of classical music pieces that are staged today, it's important to listen to both historical as well as contemporary women composers.

• Bacewicz - Music for Strings, Percussion, and Trumpets
• Ustvolskaya - Piano Sonata No. 6
• Frolyak - Symphony No. 2
