In today’s Short Notes, we’re heading to Sweden. We’re investigating the life and music of Amanda Maier. She was a violinist and composer, and the first woman to graduate as a Director of Music from the Swedish Royal Academy.
Not all of Amanda Maier’s music is available to listen to online. dB productions are recording her entire catalogue – their CDs can be bought here. Some of the music that we mention in the podcast is:
Violin Sonata in B Minor
Violin Concerto in D Minor
Piano Trio in E-flat
Six Pieces for Violin & Piano No. 6
The theme tune is ‘Dusty Rag’ by May Aufderheide. Performed by Joanna Goldstein for Centaur. This podcast is licensed by PRS for Music (www.prsformusic.com).
