Listening to Ladies
Women composers have historically been left almost entirely out of the classical music canon, and still struggle today to have their work heard. Join Elisabeth Blair as she speaks with composers from around the world about their lives and their music.
Wonderful podcast!

I am so happy that this podcast exists. After listening to the first episode, I found myself quickly binging the entire catalog. Even if you aren't a composer, I think you can still find a lot that is fascinating to hear and learn. The personalities and voices — both musical and literal — are so varied, and I love the diversity of the women interviewed. This is a very well-produced podcast, and I appreciate how much time and effort putting these interviews together must take the host. Please have a listen, it's really an important subject!
Educational and Engaging

Thank you for creating this educational and engaging podcast. Since I started listening to Listening to Ladies, I have learned so much about the music of composers I did not know much about. I am glad that Elisabeth Blair took the initiative to create this podcast to let the world know about the music created by these diverse group of women composers.

Big thanks to Elisabeth Blair for this terrific episode and conversation with extraordinary composer Marga Richter! Skillfully done interview interwoven with great introductory excerpts of Marga's music for those who aren't yet familiar with her work. This is such an invaluable service to the field of contemporary composition and women composers.
