About this listen
Stories drawn from the life and music of French composer Melanie Bonis and her "Femmes de Legende" pieces for piano. An exploration of seven legendary women in brief revisionist form and an appreciation for one woman composer, who was not allowed by the society in which she lived to fully explore her creative potential.
This audio version allows listeners to hear Bonis' music and judge for themselves her place in musical history. Pianist and writer Sonya Subbayya Sutton has taken inspiration from the pieces Bonis wrote about Phoebe, Omphale, Viviane, Desdemona, Salome, Ophelia, and Melisande to create new stories about these women. Fictional, historical, and musical elements are woven together in this audiobook.
